Baby has a fever of 38.3 for three days, what should I do?

Patient's question:

The baby has a fever of 38.3 for three days already. Medication has been given, but the fever keeps fluctuating without disappearing. There's sneezing, slight clear nasal discharge, but no coughing. In the past few days, there have been frequent smelly farts. This morning at 2 a.m., the fever rose to 38.7, and the body is burning hot. What's wrong with the doctor? What medicine should be given?

Doctor's answer:

According to the situation you described, a normal is 36-37 degrees Celsius. The baby's body temperature is quite hot, and the baby's symptoms are more likely to be caused by an upper respiratory infection. It is recommended to let the baby drink more water and pay attention to preventing colds, such as symptoms caused by exposure to cold or chills. It is suggested to implement comprehensive treatment through wind dispelling, cold dispelling, anti-cold, and anti-infection measures, and maintain a light and easily digestible diet.
