How should I handle a child's urinary tract infection?

Patient's question:

Child has a urinary tract infection, just finished receiving Ceftriaxone, slightly feverish. What should be done for the child's urinary tract infection?

Doctor's answer:

If the body temperature is below 38.5, you can use ibuprofen to reduce fever. However, if it is above 38.5, try to use physical cooling methods.
Advice: Physical cooling involves using a damp towel to wipe areas with major blood vessels, such as the back of the ear, neck, and large joints where the body bends. Additionally, it is essential to drink plenty of water.
For patients with urinary tract infections, in addition to immediate treatment, they should also pay attention to maintaining a proper diet in daily life to digest nutrients. I hope the above answer is helpful to you. Thank you!
