Question

A four-and-a-half-year-old girl has had a sore throat for ten days. Six days ago, she started to have a runny nose accompanied by a mild cough. She has been taking ceftriaxone for two days without any effect. Routine blood tests show signs of viral infection.

Answer

Based on the results of the routine blood test, there is a possibility of viral infection, and it is recommended to use appropriate antiviral medication for treatment. Since the symptoms have not improved, it is suggested to go to the hospital again to check for bronchitis or other complications and to receive treatment under the guidance of a doctor. At the same time, it is important to ensure that the child drinks plenty of water and avoids eating spicy or irritating foods.
