I believe many parents have encountered and dealt with infant fever. Indeed, many parents are familiar with infant fever and love to observe it in clinical practice. They are also good at handling it and may use physical or medication methods to reduce the fever according to the specific situation of the infant. However, the fever in infants often recurs. So, what are the reasons for recurrent fever in infants?
Some babies have a fever, and shortly after the fever subsides, their body temperature will become abnormal again, and this situation will last for a long time. This is called recurrent fever in babies. This situation usually indicates inflammation, and from the specific cause, it is likely to be an infection, usually a viral or bacterial infection.
Because infants are prone to fever when infected, and recovery after infection definitely requires a process, which can cause recurrent fever in infants. However, in terms of specific timing, after being infected, infants may have a fever that lasts for about two to three days, and it cannot be ruled out that some infants may have a fever that lasts for about three to four days.
Parents should take good care of their infants during fever periods, as well as monitor their body temperature, especially to prevent high fever in infants. After all, high fever has a significant impact on infants. If it is a high fever infant, physical cooling alone cannot be relied upon. Although physical cooling is gentle for infants, the fever reduction effect for high fever is not very good.
