Patient's question:
What should I do if a child has recurrent fever? They took ibuprofen suspension drops. Applied fever reducer patches. Starting yesterday afternoon. No allergy yesterday afternoon, now it's 38 degrees, should I go to the hospital?Doctor's answer:
Based on the situation you described, it is mainly considered to be tonsillitis. For a child like yours, it is primarily caused by catching a cold. It is recommended that you give your child medications such as Cefixime Granules, Pediatric Pharyngotonsillitis Granules, and Vitamin C tablets. If the temperature is above 38.5 degrees, you should give fever-reducing medication. If the temperature is below 38.5 degrees, there is no need to take fever-reducing medication; simply give your child plenty of warm water. If you notice that your child is lethargic and has a fever, you should promptly take them to the hospital for intravenous treatment. Rest well, carefully observe your child's condition in all aspects, pay attention to preventing colds, and avoid catching a cold. Wishing your child a speedy recovery!
