Patient's question:
My baby suddenly started having a high fever of around 39°C from February 5th, which lasted for about 3 days. Starting yesterday, the fever has turned into a low-grade one of around 37.5°C. Is it likely to be roseola?Doctor's answer:
The phenomenon of fever you mentioned in the child is likely caused by bacterial and viral infections, which are somewhat related to the child catching a cold. It is recommended that you first have the child tested for a complete blood count, which would be beneficial. If the detailed examination shows that the child's blood count is high, then administering cephalosporin antibiotics and Qingkailing injection for intravenous infusion can yield good treatment results. Wishing the child a speedy recovery from fever symptoms.
