Patient's question:
Last night, I cried all night and my mouth was still hot. It's only now that I measured my temperature at 38.5 degrees Celsius, and I also got a vaccination this morning.Past treatment history and effectiveness: I was given Siquan Decoction. What kind of help is needed: How to reduce fever, and do I need to have a thorough medical examination at the hospital?
Doctor's answer:
According to your statement: When the child's body temperature is below 38.5 degrees Celsius, you can use a warm towel to wipe the armpits, groin, and other major artery areas to help lower the temperature, every 10 minutes. If the temperature is below 38.5 degrees Celsius, you can use fever-reducing medicine to lower the temperature. You can take Motrin according to the instructions. Take the child to the hospital as soon as possible to check blood tests, C-reactive protein, and mycoplasma to identify the following infectious causes. Only after a thorough examination can symptomatic treatment be administered. Vaccinations cannot be given.
