Patient's question:
1-year-old children who get sick can they take medicine instead of injections, and can they get injections instead of intravenous fluids? First follow-up question: Thank you for Dr. tflysh's answer. I would like to ask, what kind of impact does frequent injections or intravenous fluids have on children?Doctor's answer:
When a baby has a high fever and cannot eat or drink, doctors will use intravenous therapy as a treatment method. Intravenous therapy can force the sick child to rest in bed, provide a medication delivery route, promote the excretion of toxins from the body, and control the speed, amount, and composition of the infused fluids to achieve the goal of treatment. Child health issues have always troubled parents. When treating this condition, it is important to consider general treatment approaches. Parents can only help children recover from the illness quickly by using the correct methods, ensuring that it does not affect their growth and development. Therefore, parents are advised to pay close attention to their children's condition and take them to a doctor for timely medical treatment.
