Question

My daughter is 3 years old. She was normal during the day, but suddenly started to have a fever at night. I am very worried and would like to know how to handle a child’s fever.

Answer

Your child’s condition might be due to an upper respiratory tract infection, which is often caused by viral or bacterial infections. You can give your child some fever-reducing medicine. It’s best to go to the hospital for a blood routine check and symptomatic medication treatment. Different causes lead to different symptoms, and patients should seek prompt and systematic examination at a regular three-level A hospital according to their own condition for targeted treatment. In addition, patients should maintain regular work and rest , do a good job of keeping warm, eat light and soft foods in daily diet, keep the air ventilated, and drink more hot water.
