Question
The child has been very disobedient and crying constantly lately. Even after a hospital check-up, there’s no improvement. Can I still use fever-reducing suppositories after giving the child fever-reducing medicine?
Answer
If the child’s temperature is not higher than 38.5 degrees Celsius, it is recommended to use physical cooling methods, such as wiping the entire body with warm water. At the same time, ensure the child drinks plenty of water, avoids catching a cold, and maintains a light diet. If the temperature exceeds 38 degrees Celsius, consider using medications such as ibuprofen suspension or naproxen.
