Question
The child has experienced low-grade fever multiple times, with the fever disappearing upon waking up in the morning and the body temperature around 37.2 degrees in the afternoon. A month ago, the child was hospitalized for bronchopneumonia and has been experiencing intermittent low-grade fever since discharge. What could be the cause?
Answer
If a child continues to have repeated episodes of fever, it may indicate that pathogens have not been completely eliminated from the body. Further blood tests are needed to determine if there is still an infectious agent present. If there is an infection, more intensive treatment will be required. These are the recommendations for a child with repeated low-grade fever that disappears in the morning. I hope this helps, and wish you good health.
