Developed high fever at 4 or 5 this morning.
Current Condition:
Temperature: 39°C
History of Diagnosis and Treatment:
Received two bottles of intravenous fluids this morning.
Doctor's answer:
Alright, children usually get fever due to catching colds or viral infections, but there are also other causes. If a child has a fever, it means there are bacteria or inflammation in their body, causing their temperature to rise. It's important to give them plenty of fluids and use physical cooling methods. If the child has a strong immune system, the fever will usually subside. However, if the condition is severe, it's necessary to take them to the hospital's pediatric department to see a doctor for a clear diagnosis and targeted treatment.
