Patient's question:
On the evening of the 17th, at 7 PM, I noticed a high fever and went to the hospital. The doctor said it was caused by a respiratory infection and prescribed Xiao'er Baicao Granules, Ribavirin, Cefixime, and I also took Ibuprofen Suspension. So far, the fever is still recurring.Previous treatment and effectiveness: Xiao'er Baicao Granules, Ribavirin, Cefixime, and Ibuprofen Suspension were prescribed.
What kind of help is needed: Should I receive intravenous fluids or focus on taking these medications? How long will this condition last?
Doctor's answer:
Currently, there are still cases of high fever, and it is necessary to pay close attention and observe for any other symptoms. Check the throat for redness or blisters, and also monitor the bone and muscle areas for blisters to see if there is a possibility of hand, foot, and mouth disease. Given the prolonged high fever and the lack of effectiveness from medication, it may be necessary to recheck the complete blood count to assess the inflammatory condition. If the condition is severe, intravenous treatment could be considered.
