What should I do if the baby starts to have a fever?

Patient's question:

The baby started having a fever on the evening of the 26th. After three days, we took them to the health center, where they said the throat was slightly inflamed and prescribed medication to take home. However, the fever kept recurring. We went back to the hospital again, but the fever still persisted. By the 29th, we started giving them a mixture of Houtouzao, Xiaofengsan, and Zhenzhu Mo powder, and since then, the fever has subsided, but the cough is very severe, and there is a lot of phlegm.

Doctor's answer:

According to your description of your baby's condition, over the past three days, the baby has had symptoms of fever, cough, and sore throat. It is recommended to consider a respiratory infection. Take the baby to a regular public hospital pediatric department for a follow-up visit. Through a thorough examination, confirm what pathogen is causing the infection, so that treatment can be administered accordingly. The above is advice on the question "The baby has already started to have a fever on the evening of the 26th." I hope it helps you. Wishing you health!
