Patient's question:
I don't know what's going on, but my child has been misbehaving lately and crying non-stop. Even the hospital check-up didn't help. What should I do if my baby, who is 1 year old, has a recurring fever of 39 degrees?Doctor's answer:
Hello, considering the possibility of a cold, it usually involves symptoms such as coughing, phlegm production, and fever. The measured temperature does not need to be adjusted by 0.5 degrees—over 37 degrees is considered a fever. You can use children's paracetamol and chuanxindan granules for treatment. Drink plenty of water and pay close attention to keeping warm. If necessary, intravenous fluids can be used for treatment.There are many triggers that can affect a child's respiratory system. If the child is confirmed to have a respiratory issue, parents need to cooperate with the doctor in active treatment, assist with gastrointestinal decompression, and develop good hygiene habits. The child should maintain a balanced diet and avoid stimulating and cold foods.
