What should I do if my baby has a high fever for three days?

Patient's question:

22-month-old baby with high fever for three days without subsiding, with fever only and no other symptoms, in good spirits. Suspected of having a childhood illness. On the third day of fever, a blood test was done. This morning, a rash appeared, confirming that it should be a childhood illness.

Doctor's answer:

According to your description, the fever has subsided after the rash appeared on the child. You don't need to worry too much. Based on the medication, it is still possible that the white blood cell count is a bit low? If there is no inflammation in the tonsils, pharynx, or other areas, you don't need to use Cefixime and Oseltamivir. A re-examination of the complete blood count is necessary. The above is advice for the question "22-month-old baby with high fever for three days that persists and recurs." I hope it helps you. Wishing you good health!
