Patient's question:
These days, my boss said I'm not in good spirits, which has affected my work performance. Actually, I didn't mean to. I often can't sleep at night, and sometimes feel anxious and uncomfortable. If it gets worse, I'm worried it will affect my health and work. What temperature is suitable for taking fever-reducing medicine?Doctor's answer:
Hello, in such cases, it is advisable to take more physical cooling measures, such as applying cold compresses to the forehead. If the body temperature exceeds 38.5°C, you can use ibuprofen suspension for medication to lower the temperature. The main treatment focuses on addressing the underlying cause. Blood tests can be conducted for reference, and if a viral infection is detected, antiviral medication can be administered. Drinking plenty of warm water is also recommended.
