How to safely and effectively reduce a child’s fever?
A 17-month-old child began throwing up whatever they ate, but now doesn’t vomit anymore, only to have diarrhea with water and the original form of food. The doctor explains what’s going on.
A one-year-old one-month-old boy, after having his hair shaved, experienced a change in hair color from black to golden red. The hair has not returned to black and the parents are seeking possible causes and treatment methods.
A child has had a high fever for four days and despite infusion treatment, the fever remains. The child is now experiencing rapid breathing, suggesting a possible pneumonia or bronchitis. It is advised to undergo a chest X-ray and routine blood test for confirmation. If pneumonia is diagnosed, timely antibiotic treatment should be administered, and immediate hospital pediatric care is recommended. It is crucial not to self-medicate as incorrect medication could worsen the child’s condition.

Children’s hiccuping may be caused by eating too much, too fast, inhaling cold air, food irritating the throat, or indigestion. Persistent hiccuping should prompt a visit to the hospital for a thorough check-up. If the trachea is injured, a bronchoscopy may be necessary, or the child can try to take a deep breath and hold it, or use stomach-soothing and anti-retching traditional Chinese medicine for treatment.
Persistent diarrhea in children could be due to indigestion or enteritis. It is recommended to check stool samples and treat symptomatically based on the results.
