Patient's question:
My baby at home has recently had a very high temperature, so I gave him many fever-reducing drugs. Later, it didn't work and an accident happened, and his temperature became extremely low. I want to know what to do if a child's temperature drops too low after taking fever-reducing medication? The answer to this question is really important to me.Doctor's answer:
Usually, in clinical diagnosis, a normal body temperature is between 36 degrees and 37.3 degrees. You mentioned this situation, you need to retest with a mercury thermometer to verify the child's specific condition. Generally, fever-reducing medications for children are relatively safe, and at this time, it is rarely a problem to have a low body temperature again. If the problem of low body temperature occurs multiple times, it is necessary to eliminate all external influencing factors.
