Patient's question:
These days, my boss said I'm not in good spirits, which has affected my work performance. Actually, I didn't mean to, either. I often can't sleep at night, and sometimes feel anxious and uncomfortable. If it gets worse, I'm worried it might affect my health and work. May I ask if I can still take the fever-reducing medicine if I only took one dose and didn't finish it?Doctor's answer:
Hello, yes, if the body temperature exceeds 38.5 degrees, you can use Western medicine to reduce fever, or use physical cooling methods, or use fever patches. Both traditional Chinese medicine and Western medicine need to be used according to the symptoms to be effective. The baby is still very young, and it's not easy to handle. Therefore, you should not act on your own and use Chinese herbal medicine indiscriminately. There are many factors that can induce respiratory diseases in children. If the child is diagnosed with a respiratory disease, parents need to cooperate with the doctor to start treatment immediately, cooperate with gastrointestinal decompression, and develop good hygiene habits. The child needs a reasonable diet and should avoid stimulating and cold foods.
