Patient's question:
My son has been having prolonged fever every time he gets sick, usually lasting more than a week, and it's always low-grade fever. I'm really worried about this child burning like this, his brain might really have problems again, it's very serious. What are the reasons for high fever that doesn't go away in children?Doctor's answer:
If the child again exhibits persistent high fever, this is likely caused by an inflammatory infection. It is recommended to actively implement medication treatment. Oral antiviral drugs can be considered to alleviate fever as a symptomatic solution. If there is no improvement, it is advisable to seek further examination in the pediatric department of a hospital. This may require blood tests, chest X-rays, and bacterial culture tests.
