Patient's question:
The child is 3 years and 11 months old, a girl. She started experiencing low fever last night and took medication, which helped reduce the fever. However, in the morning, her fever returned. She took fever-reducing medication twice during the day, which provided some relief, but now she has a fever again, at 40.1 degrees. She just took medication, and I was wondering if I can give her a rectal fever-reducing suppository now?Doctor's answer:
If the last dose of medication was given 4 hours ago, you can take the medicine now. If it hasn't been 4 hours, it's not yet time. It's not enough to just reduce fever; you should also treat inflammation, antiviral infections, and anti-infection. Only when the inflammation subsides may the fever stop. The above content is the complete answer to the question: "How to treat a 3-year-old 11-month-old girl with low fever?" I hope the patient can soon overcome the illness and recover, living happily and joyfully every day.
