Question
Male, 6 years old, my child has been suffering from a cold with fever recently, with persistent coughing and runny nose. The condition fluctuates. What are the dangers of enema for a feverish child?
Answer
Based on your description, the dangers of enema for a feverish child include causing intestinal mucosal damage and leading to enteritis. It is advised that parents consider this carefully and must seek medical examination and treatment at a regular hospital. Additionally, attention should be given to the child’s cold prevention and drinking plenty of water can help stabilize the condition. Different causes lead to different symptoms, and patients should seek systematic and standardized examinations at regular three-level A hospitals as soon as possible for targeted treatment. Moreover, patients need to maintain regular routines, do a good job of cold prevention and warmth preservation, eat light and soft foods in daily diet, keep the room well-ventilated, and drink hot water frequently.
