Question
Over the past few days, my child has been suffering from a low fever. Today, the temperature was below 38.5 degrees Celsius, and they suddenly started to convulse. I would like to know what measures can be taken to address fever-related convulsions in children? Additionally, what is the most stable approach to dealing with a child’s low fever that has not subsided for four days?
Answer
If your child has had a low fever for four days and it hasn’t subsided, it is advisable to go to the hospital as soon as possible for a thorough examination to determine the specific cause. Then, follow the doctor’s instructions for appropriate medication treatment. In the meantime, pay attention to the child’s care, give them plenty of water to drink, and ensure they get adequate rest. Furthermore, patients should maintain a regular lifestyle, take good cold prevention measures, consume light and soft foods in daily meals, ensure good ventilation, and drink plenty of hot water to prevent the condition from recurring.
