Question
A six-month-old infant has developed many rashes on their body after four days of fever. The parents have taken the child to see a doctor and have administered the doctor-prescribed Revitalizing Granules, Cefamandole Granules, and Bupleurum Granules, but the fever persists. The parents are concerned about the rashes on the child’s body and whether these symptoms should be allowed to develop naturally, as well as the impact of taking antipyretic medication for several days consecutively.
Answer
This situation is common in infantile rash and rubella. For these two diseases, there is no specific treatment method as they are caused by viruses. You can give the child a moderate dose of oral antiviral medication and ensure the child stays hydrated, avoids getting wet or catching a cold in daily life, and closely monitor the child’s temperature changes.
