A newborn’s limb fever may be due to an immature nervous system, which cannot effectively control the constriction and dilation of small blood vessels, leading to insufficient blood supply to the limbs. Mothers can confirm if the baby is overheated by measuring their body temperature or touching their forehead and armpits. If the temperature is below 38 degrees Celsius, home remedies for fever reduction can be taken, such as drinking more water, getting more rest, and paying attention to care.
A baby with a fever of 38 degrees may be caused by viral or bacterial infection. It is recommended to bring the baby for a routine blood test to determine the cause. Before the exact cause is known, symptomatic anti-inflammatory medication can be administered, along with physical cooling methods such as alcohol wipes. If the antipyretic medication is ineffective, consider using antibiotic treatment and ensure the baby stays well-hydrated.
If a baby under one year old suddenly starts to have a fever with no apparent symptoms, it could be due to improper diet or infection. It’s recommended to have a routine blood test and receive appropriate treatment.

If symptoms persist or worsen, seek medical attention promptly and have a complete blood routine test.
