Patient's question:
Fever for three days, temperature between 37.5-38.5. I went to the hospital a few days ago, and it was just a little red throat.Treatment history and effectiveness: Taken Xiao Kuai Ke, Meilin, Amoxicillin, and Ribavirin granules.
What kind of help I need: The fever goes down after taking medicine. I want to consult a doctor about what to do in this situation. Because my baby is chubby, it’s hard to find a vein every time he gets an IV, and he keeps rolling the needle every time. The child is suffering. I want to ask if there are any other medications I can take? Is it necessary to go to the hospital?

Currently, the advice is to drink more water, pay attention to preventing colds, and can take Ritonin or be injected with Ceftriaxone. Xinyaping can also be administered for treatment.
