Question

My child has a persistent high fever and vomiting, and has been emotionally unstable with crying and restlessness. We’ve gone to the hospital for checks but haven’t received any results. I don’t know what to do.

Answer

Firstly, you can use alcohol sponge baths to help lower the fever, then further investigate the cause of the fever. Fever may be caused by infection, connective tissue disease, or malignant tumors. It is not recommended to rush into medication before the cause is determined. For respiratory system issues, actively cooperate with the doctor’s treatment, including gastrointestinal decompression and maintaining good hygiene habits. The child’s diet should be reasonable, avoiding spicy or cold foods.
