Question
A child is experiencing persistent low fever without coughing and maintains the same mental state as usual. This is the first time they have shown such symptoms. How should one respond?
Answer
The causes of fever in children are diverse, with infectious causes being the most common. If a child has persistent low fever, it is first necessary to determine the cause and treat accordingly. High fever can lead to febrile seizures in children, so sometimes cooling measures are required. Cooling methods include medication and physical cooling, and specific medication should be used under medical guidance.
