Question
A few-month-old child developed a fever after playing outside and catching a cold, even experiencing convulsions. What should be done if the child continues to have a persistent low fever?
Answer
If a child has a persistent low fever along with convulsions or other abnormal symptoms, it is advisable to take the child to a regular large hospital for a detailed examination as soon as possible to find the cause of the low fever and then receive appropriate treatment according to the doctor’s instructions. Never administer medication to the child on your own. Different causes require different treatment methods, so while waiting for the examination results, carefully attend to the child’s condition and take corresponding measures based on the professional doctor’s advice.
