Patient's question:
I don't know what's going on, but my child has been misbehaving and crying non-stop recently. Even the hospital check-up didn't help. Could you please tell me how much fever-reducing medicine should a baby who is more than five months old take?Doctor's answer:
Children over two or three months with a body temperature above 40°C, accompanied by refusal to drink water, even when drinking a lot, still showing extreme discomfort, little urination, and dry mouth, with few tears when crying, headache, earache, or neck pain, require immediate medical attention if experiencing persistent diarrhea or vomiting. There are many causes of endocrine diseases in children. If a child is diagnosed with an endocrine disease, parents need to cooperate with the doctor for immediate treatment, support gastrointestinal decompression, and develop good hygiene habits. The child should have a balanced diet and avoid stimulating and cold foods.
