Patient's question:
My baby is ten months old and has herpangina with a temperature of 39 degrees and low fever. She has had two shots, but she hasn't recovered yet. My husband and I don't know what to do. Everyone in his family is very anxious. I love my baby very much, but her illness cannot be delayed. What should I do?Doctor's answer:
Herpetic laryngitis is a viral infection that causes blisters to reappear in the throat. It can lead to a fever, and if the temperature reaches above 38.5 degrees Celsius, medication is needed to reduce the fever. If the symptoms are severe, hospitalization for treatment is necessary. Additionally, if laryngitis causes swelling of the throat, it can lead to breathing difficulties, requiring hospital observation or immediate medical treatment upon symptom recurrence.
