The baby’s mental state is good, and there is no fever caused by headache and other uncomfortable symptoms, you can not take fever-reducing drugs, with a warm towel to wipe the baby’s armpits, forehead, feet, palms, etc. for physical cooling. 2. If the baby’s fever reaches 38 degrees and after physical cooling, the temperature still continues to rise above 38.5 degrees, you can give your baby acetaminophen or ibuprofen and other fever-reducing medicines, generally choose one of them. If your baby’s fever persists or is accompanied by other uncomfortable symptoms, it is recommended that you consult a doctor to determine the cause of the illness and standardize treatment.
