One-year-old baby has recurrent low-grade fever

Babies are most susceptible to catching colds and getting sick when they are under three years old, so many children often feel uncomfortable and may even cause some trouble and burden. If a one-year-old baby has repeated low-grade fever, it generally depends on whether the body temperature exceeds the normal level. In addition, measure the child's temperature regularly to see how the child's temperature changes. If the child continues to have a low-grade fever, take these relevant precautions.

A low fever refers to a body temperature around 37.3°C, which generally does not exceed 38°C.

What to do if you have a low fever? What should I do if I find myself having a low-grade fever on a daily basis?

First of all, if you find yourself suffering from a low-grade fever, you should increase your rest time and supplement with better nutrition. If you are nervous for a long time, it may also cause a low-grade fever, so you should relax on weekdays.

Secondly, if you have a low-grade fever all the time, you should record your body temperature changes and understand when your body temperature is highest during the day.

Third, if you have a persistent low-grade fever, you should go to the hospital as soon as possible. A full-body examination is recommended. Try to avoid gatherings or crowded places.

Fourth, you should consider taking antipyretics only when the temperature is above 38°C. If you are in a low-grade fever period, be sure to be careful not to abuse antipyretics. The casual use of antipyretics by patients with low-grade fever may lead to dangers such as aplastic anemia.
