Question
What should be done when a child has a fever? How long after receiving a fever-reducing injection can one take fever-reducing medication?
Answer
Firstly, alcohol-based sponge baths can be used to help reduce fever. Secondly, it is important to identify the cause of the fever, as it can be triggered by various reasons, including infections, connective tissue diseases, and malignant tumors. One should not rush into medication without determining the cause. For pediatric general surgery issues, parents should promptly take their child to a top-tier hospital for examination and treatment, and pay attention to regular check-ups for the child, treating symptoms under the guidance of a doctor.
