How to handle a 1.5-year-old baby with persistent high fever

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. How should I handle a one-and-a-half-year-old baby with persistent high fever?

Doctor's answer:

Use warm water to wipe and clean, which also helps in cooling down. Drink more water, use fever patches, take some Melatonin, and pay attention to the dosage. If the baby's spirits are not good, it's best to check it and then treat it accordingly for your own peace of mind. Symptoms caused by cough are due to inflammation and irritation, so timely oral medication like Kekemmin and Azithromycin should be taken. If it doesn't work, intravenous treatment can be used. Avoid spicy foods and eat more fresh vegetables and fruits for early recovery.
