Patient's question:
What should I do if the child alternates between fever and no fever?Doctor's answer:
How long has this child had a fever? Were there any other symptoms during the fever? Further tests may be necessary to determine the cause of the fever. A blood test can be performed. It is recommended to adjust the child's clothing according to the temperature, drink more water, and get adequate rest. If the temperature exceeds 38.5°C, medication can be used to reduce fever. If the temperature is below 38.5°C, physical cooling methods such as wiping with warm water or warm baths can be used. For mild cases, oral medication can be taken. If the fever persists after taking oral medication for more than 3 days, intravenous infusion is recommended.
