Patient's question:
Children have had poor sleep for about four days due to constipation. About the previous treatment and its effectiveness: They have taken medicine, but the child simply refuses to eat it. Today, they received two injections for anti-inflammation and fever reduction, but the child is still not very energetic. What kind of assistance is needed: How should this condition be treated?Doctor's answer:
For 11-month-old babies, drinking medicine is not a good treatment method; it is better to be hospitalized for intravenous fluid treatment. First, suppress the inflammation: if it is a bacterial or viral infection followed by a secondary bacterial infection, use antibiotics. General fever can be controlled after effective antibiotic treatment. If there is high fever, physical cooling methods can be used: such as warm water bathing, and if necessary, take fever-reducing medication (follow doctor's advice).
