Patient's question:
That night, the fever lasted for 5 hours, ranging from 39°C to 39.5°C. Taking Tylenol did not relieve it, and this has never happened before. No anti-inflammatory medication was taken; I don't know which one to use. The child's face is burning hot—what should I do? Urgent!Doctor's answer:
There are many reasons for a fever, such as bacterial infections, viral infections, and catching a cold. When taking medication, it is important to choose drugs with fewer side effects. If the temperature is not above 38.5°C, focus on drinking more water. If it exceeds that, it is necessary to actively use fever-reducing medication and actively apply physical cooling methods. At the same time, drink more water and, if necessary, actively undergo blood tests to determine the situation. It can be recovered.
