Patient's question:
I've noticed this symptom for a long time, but the condition hasn't improved at all. Should blood tests be done for a child with fever and cough?Doctor's answer:
This symptom is associated with infant upper respiratory tract infection, and the twitching is caused by high fever convulsions. It is necessary to test urine to identify the factors of sepsis. Seasonally, the current colds are mostly caused by influenza viruses, and treatment is based on antiviral therapy, supplemented with azithromycin for better effects. For severe cough, expectorant and cough-relieving medications such as Jujube Red Phlegm Cough Decoction should be taken. During fever, physical cooling is the preferred method, and antipyretic drugs may be taken if necessary to reduce body temperature. Rest and drink plenty of water. In addition to symptomatic treatment for children's fever, patients also need to pay attention to nursing care, such as maintaining a light diet and engaging in outdoor activities. At the same time, patients should also pay attention to choosing a regular hospital for diagnosis to obtain better treatment effects.
