Patient's question:
Hello doctor, my daughter was diagnosed with infantile epilepsy in July. In early November this year, she caught a cold and developed bronchopneumonia. After receiving intravenous fluids, she has been experiencing recurrent episodes, often with fever. It has been almost a month now. Could infantile epilepsy be causing the continuous fever?Doctor's answer:
The symptoms of epilepsy can also include fever, which is one of the symptoms of epilepsy. What you mentioned, bronchitis, can also cause fever, but the key is to treat the inflammation.Recommendation: It is recommended that you continue to give your child intravenous fluids for treatment, as bronchitis is a relatively severe inflammatory condition. If medication alone does not produce good results, consider getting a complete blood count.
