Patient's question:
My child has a fever but it's not above 38 degrees. Taking some taurine and pediatric paracetamol and chrysanthemum will be fine. But why does the fever come back after a few days?Doctor's answer:
First, taurine can be eaten. Normal body temperature is between 36-37.4℃. Fever is mostly a symptom of infectious diseases. When a child has a fever, it is necessary to complete tests as soon as possible to clarify the diagnosis and treat the cause, which is very crucial! Generally, if a child's temperature is below 38.5℃, they are in good spirits, without discomfort, or if they are infants under 2 months old, medication to reduce fever should be used with caution, and physical cooling methods can be adopted. Physical cooling methods include: drinking more water, removing excessive clothing, and ensuring the child is in a cool (but not cold) and ventilated environment. Additionally, it is also necessary to: 1. Drink more warm water, fruit juice, and vegetable broth; 2. Apply fever reduction patches to the forehead and bathe the child with warm water.
