Question
A two-year-old child has been feverish for three days, with the fever subsiding during the day and returning at night. Ibuprofen suspension was used to reduce the fever, accompanied by crying, runny nose, decreased appetite, and yellowish urine. Red spots, particularly noticeable under the eyes, have appeared on the face. There is no history of allergies or rashes. Is this a rash? How should it be treated?
Answer
High fever in a two-year-old child should be promptly treated with antipyretics, and plenty of fluids should be consumed to prevent dehydration. The yellowish urine may be due to dehydration or gastrointestinal discomfort, and a moderate amount of vitamin C can be given. Observe the condition of the stool and whether there are symptoms of a cold. If there are no other symptoms, a blood test should be conducted to determine the cause. I hope these suggestions are helpful to you, and wish you health!
