Question
The child fell from the bed and developed a fever. Is it possible that the brain was injured, and what should be done about it?
Answer
After falling from the bed, the child developed a high fever, which could be due to excessive shock, as the child’s thermoregulatory center is not fully developed and is prone to fever after shock. However, it is important to first rule out the possibility of fever caused by disease. It is recommended to take the child to a regular hospital for a detailed examination for confirmation.
