What should I do if a child has high blood count and persistent fever?

Patient's question:

No

Doctor's answer:

White blood cell count is high in the blood test, which is definitely a case of upper respiratory infection. It should be appropriate to use Cefixime and Paracetamol with Chlorpheniramine. However, to finally bring down the fever, anti-inflammatory treatment is necessary, at least for 2 days of medication. Before the anti-inflammatory treatment, there will be repeated fever. During this period, if the fever persists, physical cooling methods such as warm baths, alcohol rubs, and cold compresses can be used. If physical cooling does not reduce the fever, it is appropriate to use antipyretic drugs. Paracetamol with Chlorpheniramine can also reduce fever. Suppositories for children, Motrin, and Chen Gong Zai Xin can all be used.
