Patient's question:
This morning, my son (8 years old) measured his temperature three times below 4 times, with three readings of 35 degrees and one reading of 36.5 degrees. In the afternoon, he measured three times, with two readings of 35 degrees 4 and a few more readings of 35 degrees 2. What does this condition indicate? What should I do? In the past week, the child has had a fever, with the highest temperature exceeding 40 degrees. He was hospitalized for 4 days with intravenous fluids, and his temperature was below 38.5 degrees, with additional ibuprofen administered.Doctor's answer:
Did the child take fever-reducing medicine yesterday? Low body temperature may be due to excessive sweating after using antipyretic drugs. Currently, the body temperature is above 35 degrees Celsius. If the child is in good spirits, there is no need to worry. Pay attention to keeping warm. Generally, the body temperature will return to normal within the next one or two days. The above is advice for the question "What should I do if my 8-year-old son's body temperature is low more than 4 times?" I hope it helps you. Wishing you good health!
