Of course, we can't define the temperature purely by one time, for example, if the baby plays too happily or measures the baby's temperature just after eating, the temperature may be more than 37.5℃ or even 37.8℃. It is important to take several measurements. If the temperature is higher than 37.5℃ several times a day, it is considered that this is the time to assume that the baby has a fever and needs to be treated.

In fact, fever is not a disease, but a symptom. Fever is not only the body's defense reaction in the fight against disease, but also a warning signal released by the body, the baby's fever does not need to go to the doctor immediately, need to take measures according to the actual situation of the child.

If the baby's temperature exceeds 38.5 ℃ and is accompanied by other uncomfortable symptoms, parents can give some fever-reducing drugs at their discretion, otherwise you should not blindly give your baby fever-reducing drugs.

2, the following situations, parents must take the baby to see a doctor in time:

Tips:

Going to the hospital to treat your baby's fever is not as simple as getting a fever-reducing injection. Some common colds can cause fever, while serious diseases such as pneumonia can also cause fever. Common colds are usually cured in three to five days, but if it is pneumonia and parents do not pay enough attention to it, thus delaying the condition, then it is likely to cause more serious consequences.
