Why do children have a fever that doesn't go down

Patient's question:

Fever test, check results: normal. Injection doesn't bring down the fever. Why isn't the fever going down? What should I 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. For fever, it is essential to first identify the underlying cause and then address it accordingly. High temperatures can easily lead to febrile seizures in children, so it is also necessary to control the body temperature. The main methods for reducing temperature are medication and physical cooling. Specific medications should preferably be used under the guidance of a doctor.
