Patient's question:
Medical Description: A 22-month-old girl. Previously in good health. On August 12, 2010, she was found to have a fever of 38 degrees Celsius, with normal blood counts. Desired Help: Where is the cause of the child's illness?Doctor's answer:
Due to the child's poor adaptability to the external environment and the immature immune system, slight discomfort can easily cause fever symptoms, or there may be a phenomenon where the temperature quickly returns after taking fever-reducing medication. Especially in the hot summer, if parents use air conditioning improperly or the baby drinks too little water, or if they are not accustomed to the high temperatures, it can lead to recurrent fever. There are many causes of fever: mainly bacteria and viruses invading, triggering respiratory and gastrointestinal infections, leading to fever. What parents can do is provide sufficient nutrition based on the child's age and physical development, and add complementary foods in a timely, reasonable, and balanced manner.
