Dr. Zhou Xiaofeng
During the recovery phase of influenza B, a child experiencing sweating and low body temperature may be due to various factors. Influenza B virus infection can weaken the child's immune system and lead to physical weakness, resulting in hypothermia during recovery. Additionally, antipyretic medications used during treatment might cause excessive sweating and consequently lower body temperature. It is important to ensure proper warmth and adequate rest for the child, avoiding overexertion and re-exposure to cold. If any discomfort occurs, prompt medical attention is recommended.
