Question

Why would a three-month-old baby have a low fever?

Answer

Low fever in newborns can be caused by a variety of reasons, with the most common being infection. Before determining the cause, you can try using alcohol-based wipes to help the baby cool down. However, it’s best to identify the underlying cause of the fever, as there may be other factors beyond infection, such as connective tissue diseases or malignant tumors, that can also lead to fever. It is not recommended to rush into using medication before the cause is known.
