Patient's question:
These days, my boss said I'm not in good spirits and it's affecting my work performance. Actually, I don't want to, either. I can't sleep at night, and sometimes I feel anxious and uncomfortable. If it gets worse, I'm worried it will affect my health and work. How do you treat a fever of 38 degrees for a baby?Doctor's answer:
Hello, you can use lukewarm water to bathe the child for physical cooling. If the temperature continues to remain high and shows an upward trend, you can give the child oral naproxen or other fever-reducing tablets. It is recommended to start with physical cooling, and if it is not effective, then use fever-reducing tablets. It is also recommended to have a blood test at the hospital. Based on the symptoms you mentioned, it is considered to be a manifestation caused by upper respiratory infection. Treatment should include antiviral medication, such as children's Gan Huang Na Min granules and ribavirin, along with increased fluid intake for treatment.
