Question
My infant is experiencing recurring fever, even after using a fever-reducing injection. Are there any effective treatment methods?
Answer
Doctors suggest considering the use of fever-reducing medication when a child is over 3 months old and has a body temperature exceeding 38.5 degrees Celsius. At the same time, it is important to identify the cause of the recurring fever. If it is caused by a viral infection, antiviral medications can be used; if it is caused by a bacterial infection, antibiotics are necessary. During the fever, ensure adequate hydration, maintain a cool environment, and regularly measure body temperature. If the fever persists or other symptoms appear, seek medical attention immediately.
