Question
A 4-year-old child has been suffering from repeated fevers, and the fever does not subside even after taking fever-reducing medication. What could be the possible causes?
Answer
The child has a fever with a body temperature between 38.5 to 39.3 degrees Celsius, and the effect of fever-reducing medication is not significant. It is suggested to try using cephalosporin antibiotics and to use fever-reducing medication when the body temperature is below 38.5 degrees Celsius, while also drinking plenty of water. I hope these suggestions are helpful to you, and wish you good health!
