Patient's question:
My mental state hasn't been very good recently, and I'm not sure why. Could you please ask: How can we effectively deal with recurrent fever in children?Doctor's answer:
Children with fever are often accompanied by infectious causes, with common reasons including viruses, bacteria, mycoplasma, and so on. If a child has recurring fever, it may be due to uncontrolled infection. Pay attention to the throat condition, check a blood test to confirm whether it is a viral or bacterial infection, and provide additional anti-inflammatory and antiviral medications. For mild cases, oral medication can be used. If the fever persists after taking oral medication for more than 3 days, it is best to administer intravenous fluids. The baby should rest and drink plenty of water, with a light diet. There are many treatment methods for children with fever, but since the symptoms of the patients are different, the diagnostic methods used are also different. Therefore, patients need to have timely and thorough examination and diagnosis to achieve targeted treatment.
