Question

What should I do if my baby, who is six months old, has a fever?

Answer

Your baby’s fever may be caused by an infection, but it could also be due to other reasons. It is advised to first use alcohol-based sponge baths to lower your baby’s body temperature and to take them to see a doctor as soon as possible to determine the cause of the fever. It is not recommended to give your baby medication without first identifying the cause.
