Patient's question:
These days, my boss said my spirits aren't good, affecting my work performance. Actually, I didn't want to, either. I often can't sleep at night, sometimes feel anxious and uncomfortable. If it gets serious, I'm worried it might affect my health and work. Please ask, is it necessary for a child to have a fever when they get chickenpox?Doctor's answer:
Hello: Chickenpox is a self-limiting disease that can heal on its own. For children with chickenpox, it is important not to scratch with their hands to avoid triggering infection and leaving scars. They should take a warm bath every day, and the affected areas can be treated with acyclovir ointment. Steroid creams should not be used. Oral preparations like Banlangen can be taken to clear heat and detoxify. If fever occurs, symptomatic treatment should be administered. There are many triggers for respiratory systems in children. If a child is diagnosed with a respiratory system issue, parents need to cooperate with the doctor for timely treatment, including gastric decompression, and develop good hygiene habits. Parents should avoid letting their children develop picky eating habits and ensure a balanced diet.
