Question
Lately, my child has been feeling unwell with recurring fever. How should I handle it effectively?
Answer
Recurring fever in children is often caused by infections, which may originate from viruses or bacteria. Pay attention to the throat condition and conduct routine blood tests to confirm the type of infection, and then provide appropriate anti-inflammatory or antiviral medications based on the results. If the fever persists after three days of oral medication, consider intravenous fluid therapy. Additionally, ensure the child gets adequate rest, drinks plenty of water, and maintains a light diet. Different symptoms of pediatric fever require targeted examination, diagnosis, and treatment.
