Don't cover your quilt (and anything else) when you have a fever. Generally, there will be a feeling of cold when you have a fever, this is because the central system of the brain that controls body temperature is using sweating and other ways to regulate body temperature, and when you sweat, the body will lose water and heat, and you will feel cold. If you hold it when you have a fever, it is likely that the system of regulating body temperature in the central nervous system of the brain will fail, and the body temperature will soar uncontrollably, and it is easy to reach a temperature that the usual fever cannot reach, that is, 40 degrees, 41 degrees, 42 degrees or even higher.
When the body temperature reaches 41 degrees, it can cause damage to the body's organs, and when it reaches 42 degrees, it can cause damage to the nerve cells in the brain. Many children have a fever and their brains are burned out, most of them are not because of the fever when they are sick, but because they cover it too tightly, resulting in an ultra-high body temperature and burning out the nerve cells and tissues in the brain.
Sweating under the quilt does not make colds and flu better, and the improvement and self-healing of colds and flu (including new crowns) must wait for the immune system to clear the virus, and it takes about a week for a cold to take about three to fourteen days for the flu (there are no statistics on the self-healing time of the new crown).
In addition, whether the fever should be cooled down, including chemical cooling and physical cooling, depends on several aspects: 1. Whether the cause of fever is known or found; 2. After knowing the cause of fever, it is also necessary to know which diseases cause the fever to cool down and which diseases cause the fever not to be cooled. For example, the fever during a cold does not need to be cooled down, because the fever at the time of a cold is because after the cold virus invades the upper respiratory tract, the immune system sends an early warning, and the central system of the brain responsible for regulating body temperature will raise the body temperature, and the immune system releases the inflammatory mediators that attack the cold virus according to the degree of fever, and the inflammatory mediators released at the high point of the body temperature (will not exceed 39 degrees) are more (the cold symptoms are more serious), and the cold virus may be killed on the fifth and sixth days, and the cold will heal itself.
If the fever temperature is not high and the inflammatory mediators released are not large (the cold symptoms will be milder), it will take longer to kill the cold virus, and it may take 7, 8, or 10 days to heal on its own (no more than 14 days at most). Therefore, do not cool down the fever during a cold or flu. When you have a fever and a headache when you have a cold, you can take some ibuprofen, which is an anti-inflammatory drug, not a fever reducer.
Physical cooling is worse for colds than chemical cooling.

Covering the quilt with fever is to promote sweating, about 2 hours, if you sweat, you can no longer cover the quilt, which is not conducive to heat dissipation.
-
The main purpose of covering the quilt with fever is to sweat, to achieve a purpose of cooling down through sweating, in this process, we must pay attention to drinking enough water to ensure that the body is not short of water in the case of sweating.

After a fever, the symptoms can be alleviated by covering the quilt, because sweating can speed up the metabolism and promote the excretion of toxins in the body, and the evaporation of sweat will take away some of the heat, resulting in a drop in body temperature.
-
It's because after covering the quilt with a quilt, the body sweats, and sweat can help us expel toxic gas and moisture.
If the child has a fever, it is recommended to wipe his body and forehead with a warm water towel! Don't cover the quilt too much, it won't be easy to dissipate heat. Feed plenty of water.

It can even induce febrile convulsions, and the baby should do a good job of physical cooling when he has a fever, and never give him too much clothing.
