Patient's question:
During the treatment, the body temperature has been unstable, fluctuating between 37.5 and 38 degrees Celsius. The mental state is still okay, but there is some diarrhea, and the frequency of urination has also increased. Is this good or bad?Doctor's answer:
Dear parent friend, hello, I am very happy to answer for you. The child has a fever and has been diagnosed with hand, foot, and mouth disease. After three days of treatment, the body temperature fluctuates between 37 and 38 degrees, while a normal person's body temperature fluctuates between 36 and 37 degrees. It's just that the body temperature set point is adjusted upwards during infection. It is recommended to receive antiviral treatment, drink more water. This disease is a viral infection and is a self-limiting disease. With active treatment and rest, it will be cured. I hope my reply is helpful to you.
