Patient's question:
Symptom: A 3.5-year-old girl with a cold, cough, and fever. On the 19th night, she started feverish, with severe coughing and clear nasal discharge before that! It's basically fever twice at night, ranging from 38.5 to 39, and it comes back after a couple of hours! The same during the day! Not eating or drinking water! By today, the cough has increased, with phlegm and thick yellow nasal discharge! Still having fever! Dry heaving twice, vomiting yellow things like phlegm! Yesterday, she was given azithromycin suspension! Before that, she was on cephalosporin for clearing the lungs. Hello doctor, I ask what further tests should be done! Why is she still having fever?Doctor's answer:
From the examination report, the patient's condition is acute rhinitis, and acute bronchitis is caused by a bacterial infection. Oral anti-inflammatory, lung-clearing, wind-dispelling, and cold-dispelling medications can be used for treatment. The baby should drink more warm water, pay attention to preventing colds, and monitor body temperature regularly. It could also be due to low immunity in the child, so an immune combination check can be performed. Since the child is young and has low immunity, it is mainly necessary to strengthen exercise, pay attention to changes in weather temperature, and it will gradually improve as the child grows older.
