Question
How should I treat my 5-year-old’s fever of 39 degrees? Condition Description: Only fever symptoms, no other symptoms. We have medicine at home. I gave him some fever-reducing medicine, such as Merck, Youkadan, and Ceftriaxone Granules. The fever went down, but now his hands and feet are cold. Will he get hot again? What should I do if he continues to have a fever? Can we use air conditioning?
Answer
Hello, fever is a common symptom in children. If the body temperature exceeds 38.5 degrees, it is recommended to take oral antipyretic medication, such as ibuprofen. Then, seek medical attention promptly, complete blood tests and other relevant examinations to determine the cause of the illness. Based on the severity of the condition and the results of the examination, choose appropriate treatment under the guidance of a doctor. Hello, fever is a common symptom in children.
