Question
The child has been experiencing this situation for some time, and the parents are worried. They hope the doctor can provide advice.
Answer
Hello, if a child has a persistent fever for five days without improvement, it is recommended to be hospitalized. Based on the examination results, it is considered that the fever may be caused by a bacterial infection leading to pneumonia. Treatment includes intravenous administration of antibiotics for anti-inflammatory and symptomatic cough relief and fever reduction. If the fever recurs repeatedly and coughing is severe, it is recommended to be hospitalized for systemic treatment. It is more ideal to use medication under the guidance of a regular professional hospital, and it is suggested that you take your child to a top-tier hospital as soon as possible for treatment.
