[|Human|] My 5 year old daughter has been running a high temperature for 3 days. As high as 39.5. We have seen Doctor today who has said possible viral infection, or water infection. She has had one dose of trimethoprim and up to 5 hours ago a high temperature still, we have treated this with paracetamol and ibuprofen as advised. She has been asleep for 4 hours and now has a temperature of 34.3. What should I do?
[|AI|]  Viral infections are pretty common in child Chat Doctor.  Since it is not caused by bacteria, antibiotics are ineffective. Viral infections resolve spontaneously in 5-7 days even without the use of antibiotics. Treatment is supportive. All you have to do is to bring down the fever by the use of paracetamol or ibuprofen. You may give some antiallergic syrup like levocetirizine for a few days. Please rest assured that things would soon be fine, and you need not worry.
