Question
How should I handle a child who has a persistent low fever, cough, and phlegm?
Answer
It is recommended to use physical cooling methods to address the child’s symptoms. Firstly, ensure the child drinks plenty of fluids, including warm water, green vegetable water, and fruit juices, to promote fluid metabolism – this is a basic cooling measure. Secondly, you can use fever-reducing patches on the body surface, which is a physical cooling method that does not affect the internal body. At the same time, closely monitor the child’s symptom changes. I hope these suggestions are helpful to you, and wish your child a healthy recovery.
