What should I do if my seven-month-old child has a high fever?

Babies who have just been born are the most difficult to take care of. If you do not take good care of your baby at this time, it is very likely that the baby will develop some diseases, especially a high fever that will not go away. This situation is the most common, especially when the immune ability of a 7-month-old baby is the weakest. During this period, various diseases will come one after another, and the high fever will be more severe at night, so parents must pay attention to checking their baby's body temperature at night and observe their mental state.

Babies rarely get sick before 6 months old because the immune substances from the mother are exhausted around 6 months old. After six months, various diseases follow one after another. The most common symptom is fever. Most children's fevers are high fevers, many in the afternoon and evening, and low fevers in the morning and morning. Children's symptoms are mostly normal.

This phenomenon often occurs in children, so don't worry too much. The typical symptoms of children are:

1. Have a good mental state, play when you should, eat when you should, and sleep when you should;

2. Body temperature is high during the day, highest in the afternoon, and drops at night;

3. It usually lasts about three days.

As long as the body temperature does not exceed 38.5 degrees, try not to use antipyretics (acetaminophen, ibuprofen). If the body temperature exceeds 38.5, give these two drugs according to the dosage and try not to use other antipyretics.

The most common cause of this symptom is inflammation, which usually improves significantly after antipyretic and anti-inflammatory treatment.

Use antibiotics as little as possible, but they are effective for infectious symptoms, so you can decide whether to use them.

Pediatric massage is very effective for this kind of symptoms in children. I suggest you do it on your child yourself. It is not difficult at all.

You can wipe your body with a wet towel to cool it down.

Try to use less antibiotics to treat your baby, because long-term use of antibiotics to treat high fever in your baby may make your baby drug-resistant, which is very bad for future treatment. You can also wipe your baby's body with a wet towel appropriately. This is a physical cooling method that can have a good cooling effect.
