Patient's question:
How should I handle my child who is 10 years old and has a persistent high fever of over 39 degrees Celsius?Doctor's answer:
Hello, the child is 10 years old and has been experiencing high fever, with a temperature of 39 degrees. They need to take Motrin for fever reduction, and the diet should be light. It's important to keep warm.Medical advice: Does the child have any symptoms of a cold? If there are no symptoms, a blood test should be conducted to determine the type of infection. Symptomatic anti-inflammatory treatment is necessary. Simply using fever-reducing medication is not sufficient.
