Question
A two-and-a-half-month-old baby experienced a fever that subsided after treatment, but then the fever recurred for six days. On the seventh day, the temperature reached 39.2 degrees Celsius, and upon examination, was diagnosed with purulent sepsis and urinary tract infection, accompanied by moderate anemia. After receiving intravenous treatment, the fever was controlled, but the child has been in a state of coma ever since. What could be the reason?
Answer
High fever has a significant impact on the body, according to traditional Chinese medicine, which suggests that the body’s vital energy has been depleted. Complete recovery requires time and proper adjustment. During this period, attention should be paid to a balanced diet, adequate rest, and increased water intake.
