Discussing the treatment methods and temperature management for infants and young children with recurring fever

When a child has a fever of 37.8°C, one can initially try physical cooling methods such as alcohol sponge baths, and further investigate the cause of the fever.

During the treatment of hand, foot, and mouth disease, the child’s body temperature fluctuates between 37.5 and 38 degrees Celsius, accompanied by mild diarrhea and frequent urination. Experts recommend antiviral treatment and close observation.

A high fever in children can be caused by various reasons, including infections, environment, and activities. Parents should understand the normal temperature range for their children and take appropriate measures to lower their temperature.

It could be due to infection, calcium deficiency, or weakness of constitution, which requires attention to rest and nutrition.
