Patient's question:
Fever for four or five days now, it goes down after taking fever-reducing medicine, but it comes back up repeatedly. Went to the hospital today for an IV drip, but it came back up with a fever again at night. Have been taking Xiao Er Chai Gui for an hour now, and it's still 38.3 degrees.Doctor's answer:
Don't know if the baby, apart from fever, doesn't have symptoms like runny nose or cough? If not, there needs to be caution about the possibility of roseola. Generally, with roseola, fever lasts for about four or five days, then the fever subsides and a rash appears. The red rash lasts for about two or three days before fading.Currently, the baby is taking Cai Gui for children. The temperature is 38.3°C. It is recommended to feed more boiled water, use fever reduction patches, and wipe with lukewarm water. Pay close attention and observe carefully. It is best to have a thorough blood test at the hospital to determine the type of infection.
