My baby is 4 years old and got a cold on the 9th evening, then had a fever at night. What could be the situation?

Patient's question:

My baby is 18 years old. On the 9th night, he caught a cold and had a fever at night, but he didn't take any medicine. In the morning, he was better. Then on the 11th night, he had a fever again, around 39°C, and he didn't take any medicine either. By the third day, he was better. Today is the 12th, and at night, he had a fever again, around 40°C. What could be the situation with the child?

Doctor's answer:

According to the situation you described, the baby's repeated fever is likely due to a viral and bacterial infection. It is recommended to visit the pediatric department of the hospital for a follow-up check-up and have a complete blood count test. If there is a bacterial infection, active intravenous fluid treatment is necessary, and ribavirin should be administered through intravenous infusion in coordination. The above advice is for the question "What's the situation with my 4-year-old baby getting a fever at night after catching a cold on the 9th?" I hope it helps you. Wishing you good health!
