Patient's question:
A four-year-old baby has eye discharge, yellow nasal mucus, cough with phlegm, and high fever of 39 degrees Celsius at night. During the day, there is no fever. Two days ago, the baby coughed, and the day before yesterday, the baby had a high fever. The baby took Motrin yesterday evening and had another fever. There is a lot of eye discharge, it's yellow, and the baby has yellow nasal mucus, cough with phlegm, and white tongue.Doctor's answer:
Based on your description, the child has a fever due to an upset stomach. You can give the child many heat-clearing and fire-quenching medications, such as honeysuckle granules. Let the child drink plenty of warm water and eat more fruits, such as pears and apples. If the child has a fever, you can intermittently give them Motrin for fever reduction and combine it with physical cooling methods. If the child has a cough with phlegm, you can give them medication for it.
