What should I do if my child has recurring fever?

Patient's question:

On Sunday morning, I had a high fever, and by the evening, it reached 38.8 degrees Celsius (measured with an ear thermometer). After taking the first dose of Children's Antipyretic Granules, the fever subsided. On Monday evening, I got fever again. After taking the second dose of Children's Cai Gui Antipyretic Granules, I focused on fever, with the highest temperature reaching 39.8 degrees Celsius. After taking the first dose of antipyretic medicine Lin and Cold and Flu Effervescent, the high fever returned, and after the medication wore off, the temperature rose again to 39.1 degrees Celsius.

Doctor's answer:

According to your description, it is recommended to give the child more water and maintain regular bowel movements. The baby currently has obvious symptoms of respiratory infection, so it is suggested to have the doctor listen to the heart and lungs, check the throat, and test for respiratory pathogens to see if there are mycoplasma or influenza virus. Other options include oral pediatric acetaminophen and chlophedianol, as well as cough medicine. The above is advice on this issue, and it is hoped it will be helpful to you. Wishing you good health!
