    Principles for the treatment of fever.

    1.Give your child a warm bath to cool down physically and make him as comfortable as possible.

    The above can be taken orally with antipyretics, not more than 4 times a day. Stay hydrated and don't get dehydrated. The same medicine can reduce fever, try not to take both.

    3.A child's mental state is more important than body temperature alone.

    4.Fever more than 24 hours on blood routine + C-reactive protein. "Your child's mental state is more important than just body temperature" means that if he is in good spirits, he should be observed, and if he is not in good spirits or irritable, he should see a doctor immediately.

    Fever is the most common physical abnormality, and children are the most susceptible to fever. If parents find that the baby has a fever, they need to take some fever-reducing measures in time to try to restore the child's body temperature to normal levels as soon as possible. So, how much temperature does the baby have to take antipyretics?

    If the baby's body temperature reaches the degree, it means that the fever is more serious, and the child needs to be given antipyretic medicine, which can effectively avoid high fever causing febrile convulsions. If the child's body temperature does not drop significantly after taking fever-reducing medicine, it must be sent to the hospital in time**.

    Children are prone to fever, but when the fever is not severe, there is no need to take fever-reducing medicine. When the body temperature is below the degree, it can be cooled down by physical methods, such as cold compresses on the forehead, taking warm showers, and using antipyretic patches, which have a good fever reduction effect.

    When your child has a fever, in addition to physical cooling and taking fever-reducing medications, you should also pay attention to nursing work, such as giving your child more water to drink, because a lot of water is consumed when you have a fever. Timely hydration is conducive to the reduction of body temperature. In addition, parents should also pay attention to the diet of children with fever, and they should prepare some light and easy-to-digest foods for their children to eat spicy food without feasting.

    Some parents are very concerned about the baby's physical health, and a little problem will be easy to panic, so when the baby has a fever, no matter how much the baby's current temperature is, immediately feed the child antipyretic medicine or send it to the hospital, which is very wrong. How to help your baby reduce fever should be considered according to the age of the child and the symptoms of fever.

    In fact, for babies, there are many reasons for fever, the most obvious of which is the fever caused by teeth, most children will have a fever due to weak physique, and they will be uncomfortable, especially noisy, as parents, we are naturally very anxious, but the anxiety should also be dealt with.

    Generally, if the baby's fever is lower, then don't rush to take medicine, after all, it is a medicine that is three poisonous, even if it is a cold medicine, it still has some impact on the child, and you can eat less.

    In this case, there are also many parents who choose to go to the doctor in a hurry, cover their children with a thick quilt, and try to sweat to reduce their children's fever. As everyone knows, this method is not of much use at all, but it will make the child's situation more unsatisfactory because it is too stuffy, so you should choose a more comfortable environment, air circulation, and let the child cover the appropriate amount of quilt.

    You can choose to physically cool down, drink more warm water, wipe the body with warm water, or choose ice compresses on the forehead to bring the baby's temperature back to normal.

    If it is higher, then the antipyretic should be taken strictly in accordance with the dosage and time interval, if the fever is a little long, then it should be sent to the hospital in time, because the cause of fever is different, the condition is also different, and not all antipyretics can be solved.

    Instead, it is decided whether or not to send the child to the hospital according to how "uncomfortable" the child is.

    The degree of "discomfort" of the baby: including the poor mental state - irritability or drowsiness during the period of taking medication to reduce fever; Appetite – whether you are able to eat or have a very poor appetite; severe cough or respiratory exhaustion; vomiting or severe diarrhea, etc. If your baby has a fever for more than 3 days and has not been checked by a doctor, you should go to the hospital for a check-up, regardless of the body temperature.

    You can only take antipyretic medicine when you have a fever of 38 degrees 5, because it is already a high fever at this time, and it is difficult to reduce the fever of your child if you do not take antipyretics.

    Under normal circumstances, we can only take antipyretic medicine if it is just a low-grade fever, because although antipyretic medicine can quickly reduce fever, but there are actually some *** to the body, and the harm to the body is also quite great if you eat too much, especially children and the elderly. <>

    The normal temperature of our human body should be about 37 degrees, if the superbody has talked about 37 degrees, but it is less than 38 degrees, it is a low-grade fever, in this case, I personally suggest that you can take a physical cooling method to reduce fever, for example, you can use a wet towel to wipe our armpits, or wipe the soles of our feet and back, which can speed up the evaporation of our body temperature, so as to achieve the effect of reducing fever. Or you can put a warm towel on your forehead, which can also have a quick cooling effect. If it really doesn't work, we can also go to the pharmacy to buy that kind of antipyretic patch, in fact, the antipyretic patch itself is to take a physical cooling method to cool down.

    But when our body temperature reaches a degree, we need to use antipyretic medicine to reduce the fever, because when the temperature is reached, our mind already feels dizzy. If the fever does not go down, it is likely to cause serious consequences, so it is the wisest choice to take antipyretic medicine to reduce fever at this time. Of course, the use of antipyretic drugs to reduce fever can only treat the symptoms but not the root cause, and it is likely to continue**, which everyone should pay attention to.

    For example, if we want to solve the problem from the root, then we must first cure our cold, so when we have a cold and fever, we must go to the hospital to see the doctor, and then prescribe the right medicine to carry out **, some are wind-heat colds, but some are viral colds, and the solutions for different types of colds are naturally different.

Generally speaking, when the body temperature is high, a physical cooling scheme can be adopted. For example, drink more warm water, fruit juice, green vegetable water, paste antipyretic paste, warm water scrub bath, this series of programs.

    However, when the body temperature is exceeded, or the patient has malaise, irritability, or painful symptoms, it is necessary to take medicine. Commonly used drugs are ibuprofen and acetaminophen, which are relatively safe and are also very commonly used in clinical work.
