Patient's question:
I don't know what's going on, but my child has been misbehaving and crying non-stop lately. Even the hospital check-ups haven't helped. Is it true that children with night sweats are prone to catching colds?Doctor's answer:
Hello, according to your description, in such cases, it is important to pay attention to symptoms of weakened immunity caused by factors such as calcium deficiency. The child should be related to calcium deficiency, as this age group is usually associated with rapid growth. It is recommended to consume more shellfish foods.The main consideration is that the fever symptoms are likely caused by a viral infection. It is advised to have a complete blood count test to assist in diagnosis. If the antiviral effect is poor, you may appropriately use some anti-inflammatory drugs, which might be more effective. The characteristics of viral infection are that they tend to cause recurrent high fever. Viruses generally stop replicating within a week, so there is no need to be too anxious. Drink plenty of water, get adequate rest, and if the temperature is below 38.5°C, you can use a cold compress on the forehead for physical cooling. If the temperature is higher, you can use fever-reducing medication.
Fever is a process, and if there are any other abnormalities in the child's condition, it is important to seek medical treatment promptly.
