Question
My child has been running a high fever with a runny nose for over three days. What should I do?
Answer
The child may have a viral or bacterial infection. It is usually recommended to use physical cooling methods, such as applying a damp cloth to the forehead. If the body temperature exceeds 38.5 degrees Celsius, you can use ibuprofen suspension for medication-induced fever reduction. It is important to find the cause and take appropriate treatment measures, which can be assisted by checking blood routine.
