The baby has been running a fever and it's not going down, let's see a doctor. The blood test results showed nothing was wrong?

Patient's question:

The baby has been running a fever and it won't go down. I took them to see the doctor, and the blood test showed nothing was wrong, just the fever. The doctor prescribed fever-reducing medicine, but after taking it and sleeping for a bit, the baby just started crying non-stop.

Doctor's answer:

First, it is very common for children to have clear fever symptoms, as almost every child has experienced a fever. There are many reasons that can cause fever, and many diseases may accompany fever as a symptom or present fever as the main clinical manifestation. Therefore, when a child has a fever, reducing the fever is a very important concern for every parent. Prompt physical cooling measures should be taken, including: bathing with lukewarm water, applying fever-reducing patches, drinking as much water as possible to ensure adequate hydration in the body, etc.
