Question
My child is three years old and has been frequently having a fever lately. What should I do?
Answer
It is suggested that you take your child for a routine blood test to determine whether the fever is caused by a viral or bacterial infection. Simply using fever-reducing medication may not be sufficient. It is recommended to use cefuroxime sodium and ribavirin for treatment, and you can also use acetaminophen to reduce the fever. Remember to keep your child well-hydrated and use alcohol for physical cooling (cooling down) of various body parts.
