Question
My son has had a fever for several hours and I don’t know why. Lately, he has been very disobedient and constantly crying. I took him to the hospital for a check-up but there were no results. I would like to ask how to treat a child’s fever that has lasted for several hours?
Answer
You can first use alcohol to cool him down, and then determine the cause of the fever. There are many causes of fever, the most common being infection, followed by connective tissue disease, malignant tumors, and others. Don’t rush into medication before you have identified the cause.
