Patient's question:
The boy has had a runny nose for two days and is stuffy. He was given Fengchan Granules and Cefixime. He had a whole night of fever at 38 degrees and took fever-reducing medicine, which brought down the fever that night. On the third day, the child said he had a headache and his temperature was 37 degrees. Could it be the flu?Doctor's answer:
Based on the symptoms you described, your child's condition should be considered a respiratory infection. It is generally caused by viral or bacterial infections. Your child is more likely to have a common viral infection, as the symptoms of influenza are relatively severe. For your child's condition, it is recommended that you first take your child to the pediatric department of the hospital for a follow-up examination and diagnosis, and then determine the targeted sensitive medication treatment based on the doctor's advice.
