Is it normal for a 6-month-old baby to have recurrent fever?

Patient's question:

Is the doctor available? My baby is six and a half months old. Since yesterday evening, he has had a fever. The doctor at the hospital prescribed ibuprofen, compound aminophenyl methasulfonate syrup, ribavirin spray, and Liangjie ganmao mixture, which I gave him twice. His temperature dropped to around 37 degrees, but last night it rose to 39.6 degrees. Today, I took him to the hospital for a check-up, and the doctor prescribed indomethacin bisulfate. After taking it, his temperature began to drop, but by this evening, it had dropped to 35.5 degrees, and now it has dropped to 35 degrees. Is this normal? What should I do? Thank you.

Doctor's answer:

It is easy to agree that the decomposition metabolism of the human body helps maintain a constant body temperature. Repeatedly using fever-reducing drugs, excessive sweating, and too fast metabolism lead to high consumption, leaving the body in a state of fatigue. First, cook some ginger and brown sugar water for the child to drink. Then, apply moxibustion to the child's navel to fully restore their vital energy. Finally, take many Yu Ping Feng granules orally. Wish the child good health.
