Patient's question:
Boy, 4 years old, my child has recently had a cold and fever. He has been coughing and sneezing, and his condition has been fluctuating. What should I do if he has a slight fever and cough?Doctor's answer:
If the body temperature is between 37.5 and 38.5 degrees, physical cooling measures should be taken. Appropriate clothing should be added for the baby, and warm water baths should be given. If there is phlegm, oral antibiotics such as Cefixime should be taken. Just eating fruits is not effective. Close monitoring of temperature data is necessary. There are many methods for treating diseases, but because the patient's condition is different, the treatment methods will also vary. Therefore, patients need to go to a professional hospital as soon as possible for detailed testing to treat the symptoms accordingly.
