Is it normal for the child's fever to recur so quickly?

Patient's question:

My child has a fever... Just finished an IV drip to bring it down... But after more than an hour, the fever came back. Blood tests showed that the bacterial indicators were much higher... Is it normal for it to fluctuate so quickly? He's very hot but his feet are cold. Yesterday, he also had an IV drip, and his temperature was normal after finishing it. But it went back up after two hours... He also vomited yesterday. Today, he's better and not vomiting anymore. Is it normal for her to fluctuate so quickly now?

Doctor's answer:

Based on your description, considering you have cold symptoms, it is recommended that you take Phenylephrine and Caffeine Tablets or Cephalexin for treatment. It is advised that you avoid eating extremely cold fruits and cold drinks when you have a cold. During the feverish stage of wind-heat cold, you should avoid greasy, rich, and sweet foods. In the recovery stage of wind-heat cold, it is also not advisable to consume spicy foods such as chili peppers, dog meat, or mutton. For summer-dampness cold, in addition to avoiding greasy foods, you should also avoid overly salty foods like pickled vegetables and salted yellowfish.
