Question

My baby is six months old and has recently been experiencing symptoms of fever, with a hot forehead, legs, and cheeks, and she cries constantly. What could be the cause?

Answer

Hello, based on your description, your baby may be experiencing a fever. In infants, fever can be caused by viral or other pathogenic infections, or it may be due to overheating as their temperature regulation center is not fully developed. It is advisable to take your baby to the hospital for a check-up to rule out any infectious diseases and to find the exact cause. At the same time, please ensure your baby maintains good hygiene, avoid over-warming, and increase fluid intake.
