Question
What’s the situation when a child keeps on and off fever?
Answer
Usually, a child’s intermittent fever may be caused by catching a cold or a viral infection such as a cold. In some cases, it may also be caused by a bacterial infection. If it is a viral infection, the course of the disease may be longer, but it is usually not too serious. However, if it is a bacterial infection, the course of the disease may be shorter, but timely treatment is required to avoid serious consequences. It is recommended that parents take their children to the hospital for examination and treatment immediately if they find similar symptoms in their children. In addition, parents should also pay attention to their children’s eating health and hygiene habits to reduce the possibility of infection.
