Question
Is it necessary for a baby to have a fever during teething?
Answer
When a baby has a fever during the teething period, you can opt for physical cooling methods such as using warm water to wipe the body, applying fever-reducing patches, or wiping the palm of the hand with alcohol. If the baby’s body temperature exceeds 38.5 degrees Celsius, symptomatic anti-inflammatory medication or fever-reducing suppositories may be required.
