Question

Why do children frequently have recurrent fevers accompanied by seizures? Medications are not effective in reducing fever, what has been the past treatment outcome?

Answer

Fever in infants is common, often caused by infections such as bacteria, viruses, and fungi. Non-infectious diseases like rheumatic fever, rheumatoid arthritis, lupus erythematosus, as well as leukemia and malignant tumors can also lead to fever. Treatment includes intravenous fluids, oral medications, and sometimes the use of traditional Chinese medicine like Yu Ping Feng San. Further assessment is needed to determine the cause of the fever and appropriate measures to be taken.
