Baby of 9 months with a fever for 5 days. When should I consult again?

If your 9-month-old baby has had a fever for 5 days, it is recommended to consult a doctor again if the fever persists. You can try giving them more liquid and small portioned foods. Make sure they are dressed lightly and that the room temperature is around 22°C to help relieve the fever. Monitor their temperature, symptoms, and appetite closely. If the fever continues and they still refuse to eat in the coming days, it may be necessary to seek medical attention. Additionally, if they experience difficulty breathing, severe vomiting, or a change in alertness, seek emergency care immediately. Wishing a speedy recovery to your little one!
