A one-year-old baby’s temperature of 38°C is considered low fever. If the baby is in good spirits and does not have a decreased comfort level due to fever, there is no need for oral antipyretic drugs at this time. You can give your child more warm water to make him/her sweat, which helps to cool down the temperature. You can also give a warm towel to wipe the forehead, palms, feet, armpits, groin and other parts of the body, which is also conducive to cooling down. If your baby has a temperature of 38°C, but is not in good spirits due to a decrease in comfort due to fever, you can also give your child fever-reducing medication at this time. You can choose either ibuprofen or acetaminophen as the antipyretic medication, just choose one of the two drugs. After taking the antipyretic medicine, you should also give your child more warm water to make him or her sweat, which will bring the body temperature down to normal.
