Question
A 4.5-year-old child has a sore throat and nasal congestion with a fever reaching 38.5 degrees Celsius. After intravenous fluid therapy, the condition improved temporarily, but it recurred a week later, and the second round of intravenous treatment was ineffective. I would like to know the specific condition and treatment methods for the child.
Answer
The child’s symptoms may be caused by colds or overexertion, often accompanied by coughing, sore throat, and decreased appetite. It is recommended to take preventive measures against colds, drink plenty of water, consume vegetables and fruits, and undergo methylene blue testing and routine blood tests to determine the type of inflammation, then take symptomatic anti-inflammatory medication. Avoid taking medication blindly to prevent dysbiosis.
