Patient's question:
I had a fever last week. At that time, I had high fever and was hospitalized for intravenous infusion. Later, the fever subsided, but the aftereffects of the fever left me with persistent hiccups. Besides nasal congestion and running nose, it never seems to get better, and sometimes I also experience excessive sweating. I don’t know what’s wrong.What kind of assistance is needed: How to deal with hiccuping, running nose, and nasal congestion caused by the fever (excluding sweating), and how should it be treated?
Doctor's answer:
What should I do when I sneeze, have a runny nose, nasal congestion, and slight sweating? First, your fever is caused by a stomachache. After having a stomachache, getting cold will make you have a runny nose. Since you still have a high fever, you need to take medicine, such as cold medicine. Before taking a nap in the evening, use hot water to make a warm egg, adding 30 grams of rock sugar (first dissolve a very small amount of it in water). Sweating at night can be quite effective for treating colds. You can also try eating two pieces of ginger. Alternatively, you can try ginger and brown sugar tea.
