Patient's question:
What should I do if my baby has a fever of 38 degrees for two consecutive days and it's not going down? Are there any good solutions? Intravenous drip; fever-reducing medicine; none of them have been effective. What kind of help do I need: Please advise on what to do?Doctor's answer:
The causes of fever in children are quite numerous, and clinical diagnosis can be divided into infectious and non-infectious categories, with infectious causes being more common. Common causes include colds. The first step in treating fever is to identify the underlying cause and address it accordingly. When the temperature is too high, it can lead to febrile seizures in children. The primary methods for managing this are medication and physical cooling. It is important to closely monitor the child's condition, strengthen the body's immunity, and enhance resistance, which will aid in complete recovery.
