Doctor's answer:
Based on the patient's symptoms and medical history, it is considered to be caused by an upper respiratory infection. It is recommended that you give the child more fluids and take ibuprofen suspension orally to reduce fever. Then, you can go to the hospital to check the blood count. If the blood count is high, you can take anti-inflammatory medication orally. If the blood count is not high, you can use taurine to clear heat and detoxify.
