Question
A few days ago, after having a fever for four days and receiving intravenous drip treatment, I had another fever the next day and received two and a half days of small injections. After stopping the injections, I had another fever. A blood test showed that all five items were elevated. I’m wondering what medication to take, as I’ve been taking cold remedies, Qingkailing, and Cefixime since the fever started.
Answer
Your condition may be caused by a viral infection, which lacks an effective treatment. The main approach is to provide general supportive therapy and symptomatic treatment. Traditional Chinese medicine can be used, as Chinese herbs may have some efficacy in alleviating symptoms of viral diseases and shortening the course of the disease. Parents should pay attention to not let their children develop the habit of picky eating and should have a balanced diet.
