Patient's question:
I don't know what's going on, but my child has been misbehaving lately and crying non-stop. Even the hospital check-up didn't help. What should I do if the baby's fever doesn't go down after taking ibuprofen?Doctor's answer:
In your case, you can first use alcohol to bathe to reduce fever, and then identify the cause of the fever. There are many reasons for fever, the most common being infection, followed by connective tissue diseases, malignant tumors, and so on. Don't rush to take medication. In your case, it may be caused by a cold, requiring oral medications such as cold remedies, antibiotics, antihistamines, and antiviral drugs. You should also strengthen exercise and enhance your physical fitness. Avoid spicy, alcoholic, and cold foods that are irritating.
