What should I do if my child has had a low fever for several days?

Patient's question:

My child has had a fever for several days. The child has had a low-grade fever for days. Please give good advice to the doctor.

Doctor's answer:

According to your description, a child's temperature of 37 degrees Celsius does not fall under the category of low-grade fever; it is considered normal. There is no need to worry. If you have air conditioning at home, maintain the room temperature between 25--27℃. You can place the child in the air-conditioned room or use a fan to circulate the air around, allowing their body temperature to gradually decrease. This will also make the child feel more comfortable. However, if their limbs are cold and they are shivering violently, it indicates that they need warmth, so you should add a blanket to cover them. Daily, it is essential to pay close attention to the child's temperature and care.
