Question
After a child is around five or six months old and has a fever, they are treated with intravenous fluids, but they get fever again every month. What’s going on here? How can this situation be avoided?
Answer
There are many causes of fever, including bacterial or viral infections, catching a cold, and more. When taking medication, it’s important to choose drugs with fewer side effects. If the temperature does not exceed 38.5 degrees Celsius, drinking plenty of water can serve as basic treatment. If the temperature is higher than this, it is necessary to actively use antipyretic drugs and perform physical cooling (cooling). At the same time, drink plenty of water, and if necessary, undergo blood tests to confirm the condition. This situation can be improved.
