Dr. Yang Shuwen
Children with food stagnation and fever can be treated with medications that promote digestion and absorption under the guidance of a doctor. Commonly used medications include Bifidobacterium quadruple viable tablets and Bacillus licheniformis viable capsules. If body temperature is below 38.5°C, physical cooling methods such as warm water sponge baths or drinking more warm water may help dissipate heat. If body temperature exceeds 38.5°C, antipyretic medications such as ibuprofen suspension or acetaminophen drops can be added.
