Patient's question:
These days, my boss said my spirits aren't good, affecting my work performance. Actually, I didn't want to, either. I always can't sleep at night, sometimes feel my heart racing, and don't feel well. If it gets serious, I'm worried it will affect my health and work. Please ask, what's wrong with my child having a fever of 39 degrees that won't go down?Doctor's answer:
Generally, it is caused by a cold. Since children's thermoregulation centers are not yet fully developed, they are easily affected by external factors, leading to fluctuations in body temperature. It is generally recommended not to exceed 38 degrees Celsius, as medication is not necessary. Physical cooling methods should be prioritized, such as applying alcohol to the body and washing the face and forehead with warm water. If the temperature exceeds 38 degrees Celsius, it is generally advisable to take ibuprofen suspension or naproxen.
