Patient's question:
Two days ago, the baby had a fever of 38.6℃ and went to the hospital for a thorough examination. It was found that the fever was as high as 39.2℃. The doctor said the throat was inflamed and the white blood cell count was high. After receiving two days of intravenous drips, the fever subsided. This morning, the fever returned to 39.3℃. What should I do?Doctor's answer:
The baby has high fever, which is harmful to health. The temperature is 39.3°C, so the first priority is to reduce the fever. Many antipyretics can be used in combination with physical cooling methods. Apply a damp towel to the forehead and wipe the limbs with warm water. Encourage the baby to drink more fluids, which will help reduce the fever.Advice: If the fever keeps recurring, it means the inflammation hasn't been fully resolved. With high white blood cell count, antibiotics should be used in combination with traditional Chinese medicine for clearing heat and detoxifying to reduce fever. Qingkailing oral liquid can be used.
The above advice is for the question "What should I do if my baby has a fever, sore throat, and high fever that keeps coming back?" I hope it helps you. Wishing you good health!
