Lymphocyte count: 4.5
Platelet count: 334
Mycoplasma pneumoniae IgM antibody: Negative
History of treatment and effectiveness:
Treatment with roxithromycin was administered.
Desired help:
It is recommended to take medication. What should I do? Does the child's body suffer from bad effects due to the fever of 38°C to 38.5°C at night? The child has been receiving intravenous fluids for 8 days. Should the child continue to receive intravenous fluids?
Doctor's answer:
From your description, the baby is only over 3 years old and has had recurrent fever. After 8 days of intravenous drip treatment, the effect is not very good. In this case, it is recommended to go to a higher-level hospital for further and more detailed examination. The baby's blood test results are basically normal, so there is no need to worry too much. Children's lymphocytes are naturally a bit higher, and white blood cells are normal. If the drip is for anti-inflammatory purposes, it is not advisable to focus solely on it. It is recommended to go to a higher-level hospital for examination or consult a different doctor. If the fever does not drop below 38.5, there is no need to worry too much. Physical cooling methods can be considered, such as applying alcohol to the baby's armpits, forehead, and groin area.
