How to treat a eleven-month-old baby with recurrent fever?

Patient's question:

At 6 a.m., a 11-month-old baby started feeling hot and the fever hasn't subsided by 5 p.m. At 8 a.m., he took fever-reducing granules. At 3:30 p.m., he received a fever-reducing injection, but the fever still hasn't gone down. At noon, he took Qingfei granules, Qingre granules, and Cefixime granules. The baby has had a fever, cold, cough, and intermittent symptoms for a week.

Doctor's answer:

According to your description, you have recently been experiencing the flu, which is a gradual process. It is recommended to take your baby to the hospital for a blood test to confirm the diagnosis and provide targeted treatment. Monitor your baby's temperature frequently and pay close attention to any changes. If the temperature drops below 38.5 degrees, it is important to administer fever-reducing medication, drink more water, and use a warm towel to apply to the head or wipe the body. Ensure the room is well-ventilated, and you can also use vinegar for fumigation. The above are suggestions for this issue. We hope they are helpful to you. Wishing you a speedy recovery!
