Patient's question:
22nd, the weather suddenly turned cold, and it dropped a lot. When the baby was napping, I didn't notice and gave them a thin blanket and dressed them very lightly. At 8 PM, the baby started sleeping, and at 10 PM, I noticed the baby's face was red and they kept moving their head, and they were murmuring in their mouth. I used an electronic thermometer to measure 38.8 degrees (at 8 PM, it might have been a low fever, so I didn't pay much attention). I immediately took a taxi to the city's children's hospital emergency room (the baby was still awake on the way, but they looked red). It's possible I covered the baby with too many blankets. When I arrived at the hospital at 10:40, the temperature was 39.8 degrees. I immediately applied cooling patches and gave them cooling medicine at 11 PM.Doctor's answer:
Medical Analysis: Based on your information, the high blood count in your child indicates that the fever is caused by inflammation. The hoarse voice suggests that the child has not fully recovered and should continue taking medication.Advice: According to your description, although your child has a high fever, the temperature returned to normal quickly with treatment, and there were no adverse reactions. Therefore, it will not affect the child's intelligence, and there is no need to worry or undergo further tests. Loss of appetite is a common symptom after a high fever, as the body has not fully recovered. It is recommended to drink more water and eat light, easy-to-digest foods.
