Patient's question:
The baby suddenly started dry vomiting in the late night of April 5th, with cold hands and feet, while his body and legs were burning hot. In the morning, we didn't pay much attention to him, thinking he didn't have a fever. But by the afternoon, he started sneezing and coughing, and he refused to take medicine. The day before yesterday, we consulted a doctor, who also took his temperature and found it to be 38.7°C. We then realized he had a high fever and started taking medicine as recommended by the doctor. He received four injections, but the sneezing stopped, but the coughing persisted. Last night, he had another dry vomiting episode and coughed up a lot of blood from his nose, which scared me so much. My heart aches. Tonight, while he was asleep, I took his temperature again, and it was 36°C. I don't know if this counts as low-grade fever? Is this considered low-grade fever?Treatment history and effectiveness: Received four injections.
What kind of help is needed: Does this count as a high fever?
Doctor's answer:
The child has developed cough symptoms again, which are caused by inflammation. It is recommended to use antibiotics for treatment.Medical advice: The child's body temperature of 36°C is normal, as the normal range is 36-37°C. The child's condition requires focused antibiotic medication, which can be administered orally or through anesthesia. The treatment duration should be 7 days.
