How to deal with recurrent high fever in a 5-year-old child

Patient's question:

These days, my boss said I'm not in good spirits and it's affecting my work performance. Actually, I didn't mean to, either. I always can't sleep at night, and sometimes I feel my heart racing and feel quite uncomfortable. If it gets worse, I'm worried it will affect my health and work. How should I handle a 5-year-old child with recurrent high fever?

Doctor's answer:

Hello, according to your description, this situation may involve the possibility of infection. It is recommended that you have a blood test to check your condition. While taking fever-reducing medication, it is advisable to also take antiviral and anti-inflammatory drugs such as Shuanghuaxin and Ceftriaxone sodium for simultaneous treatment. Physical cooling methods are preferred for fever. You can take anti-inflammatory medications and pediatric cough syrup for regulation. In terms of diet, avoid consuming high-protein foods like shrimp and crabs, as well as overly sweet foods such as sugar, oranges, tangerines, and grapes, until the cough improves.
