Question
The child has been sick for two and a half days with recurrent fever, with temperatures reaching 38.6°C to 38.7°C. After taking fever-reducing medication, the temperature still remained at 37.4°C. Blood tests and A(H1N1) flu B flu tests were normal, with slight throat redness, normal tonsils, and normal lung auscultation. There was nasal congestion during the nap, and the doctor prescribed fever-reducing granules, but the condition still recurred. The child also has bad breath and foul-smelling stools, with the stools not forming properly, occurring four times today, the last two being non-formed. The body temperature has risen again, and the question is whether children’s paracetamol yellow amine granules can be used.
Answer
A child with a cold and fever requires a full recovery process. There is no need to take fever-reducing medication when the temperature is below 38.5°C. Children’s paracetamol yellow amine also contains fever-reducing ingredients. Jian’er Qingjie Liquid helps to reduce heat and alleviate diarrhea. If vomiting occurs, increase the dosage and drink Platycodon root tea for antiviral effects. If symptoms improve, drink plenty of water and closely observe the child.
