Answer
The child is 6 months old and has a fever of 39.3 degrees. Normally, children have higher body temperatures than adults and the elderly, but a fever over 39 degrees is considered high fever. It is recommended to administer an intravenous injection to quickly lower the fever, as prolonged fever can damage the child’s nervous system, thereby affecting future growth, development, and intelligence. Has the child taken any antipyretic medication?
