Question
How to handle repeated fever in children?
Answer
Based on the described situation, the child may have pneumonia. The course of pneumonia requires at least 2 weeks, not just a few days of medication. It is recommended to undergo further examination to rule out the possibility of complications from pneumonia. Fever-reducing medication should not be used more than four times a day and should not be used repeatedly to avoid gastrointestinal reactions. If the body temperature does not exceed 38.5°C, there is no need to rush into using fever-reducing medication.
