Patient's question:
Lately, my boss has said that I'm not in good spirits, which has affected my work performance. Actually, I don't want to, either. 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.How should I handle it if my four-month-old baby has a fever of 38 degrees?
Doctor's answer:
Hello, considering the possibility of a cold, it is common to have symptoms such as coughing, phlegm production, and fever. The measured body temperature does not need to be adjusted by adding 0.5 degrees; if it exceeds 37 degrees, it is considered a fever. You can use Children's Paracetamol and Chlorpheniramine Granules for treatment. Drink plenty of warm water, and pay attention to keeping warm. If necessary, intravenous fluids can be used for treatment.There are many causes that can lead to respiratory issues in children. If a child is diagnosed with a respiratory condition, parents need to cooperate with the doctor to start treatment immediately, assist with gastric decompression, and develop good hygiene habits. The child should maintain a balanced diet and avoid stimulating and cold foods.
