Patient's question:
The baby's fever reducer patch that was stuck on the forehead tonight accidentally fell off and stuck to the mouth. What should I do??Previous treatment history and effectiveness: It has never happened before.
What kind of help do you expect: Is the fever reducer patch toxic? My baby is 2 years old.
Doctor's answer:
Hello! Based on the child's symptoms and medical history, it is considered to be a case of upper respiratory tract infection. It is recommended that you give the child more fluids and take ibuprofen suspension orally to reduce fever. Then, you can have the child's blood count checked at the hospital. If the blood count is high, oral anti-inflammatory medication can be taken. If the blood count is normal, N-acetylcysteine can be used to clear heat and detoxify. It is not recommended to use fever reduction patches, as they are not very effective.
