Patient's question:
High fever of 39 degrees, caused by catching a cold. At 7 PM, I took fever-reducing medicine and broke a sweat, feeling a bit better. By 9 PM, the fever had returned to high levels. The doctor said it would be five hours before another dose could be taken. Now the child has a high fever and we're solving an equation.Doctor's answer:
Now in this season, most of the children's fever is related to the transmission of the influenza virus, which is related to contact transmission. Currently, the fever recurs every 2 hours. It is necessary to first give the child more warm water to drink and apply warm water wipes for fever reduction treatment. The fever-reducing medication must be taken every 4-6 hours. If the child's mental state is poor, intravenous fluid therapy should be used in coordination. If it is a bacterial infection, antibiotics need to be taken.
