Question
After my daughter’s fever has reduced, she always sweats, and she feels cool after sweating. She has no allergies or hereditary history. How many days of fever reduction is considered a cure? What is roseola?
Answer
After an illness, the body becomes weak, especially with qi deficiency, which causes excessive sweating. The heat retained in the body after the swelling subsides makes her feel cool. This feeling will gradually disappear, usually within 3 to 5 days. Roseola is a red maculopapular rash that appears in patches and is accompanied by itching. It is recommended that patients maintain a light diet in their daily eating habits, consume more bone soup and other nutritious foods, and eat more fruits and vegetables to help the child recover their health.
