Viral infection, fever, antibiotics, fever, what s going on?

Hello, for the problems you encounter, I am happy to help you, I have encountered yo before, the following is my personal opinion, I hope to help you, if there is a mistake, I hope to forgive me!. Just continue to take it for two days after the fever subsides, and children should not take more antibiotics*** It will be big, not better than adults. After stopping the drug, observe whether there is inflammation for a few days, if you continue to take it for a few days, and then find a doctor to see, the child will not leave inflammation or it will become chronic.

Children's fever is generally divided into bacterial infection and viral infection, and the methods are also different, once the wrong method is used, it will cause the patient to be more serious. The most common symptom of viral fever is relapse, and even after taking fever-reducing medicine, the fever will recur a few hours later. So, how do you get rid of a viral fever?

1. Wear less clothes and dissipate heat for children.

The traditional concept is that when a child has a fever, he must wrap the child tightly with clothes and quilts to "force" the sweat out, which is actually wrong. When a child has a fever, they will shiver, and parents will think that the child has chills, but in fact, it is due to the spasms caused by the rise in their body temperature.

2. Replenish sufficient water and do not take medicine casually. Breathing increases during high fever, and sweating causes the body to lose a lot of water, so parents should give their children enough water when they have a fever to increase urine output, which can promote the elimination of toxins from the body.

3. Help children cool down physically.

1) Cold and wet compress on the head: soak the soft towel with 20 -30 cold water, squeeze it slightly so that it does not drip water, fold it and put it on the forehead, and change it every 3-5 minutes.

2) Head ice pillow: Fill the ice Xiaoice cube and a small amount of water into the ice pack until it is half full, drain the air in the bag, press the bag mouth, and place it on the pillow without water leakage.

3) Warm water wipe or warm bath: Wipe the child's head, armpits, and limbs with a warm and moist towel or take a warm bath, scrub more**, and promote heat dissipation.

4) Alcohol scrub bath: suitable for high heat cooling. Prepare 20 to 300 ml of 20 to 35% alcohol and scrub the limbs and back.

Many people have the impression that the best way to get better quickly with a fever and cold is to take infusions and antibiotics. However, relevant experts have reminded the public that it is actually very unscientific to take antibiotics on a drip as soon as they are sick.

Nowadays, the seasons are changing, and some people are prone to colds. Once they have a cold, some patients will say to the doctor, "I have a cold, give me an infusion!" If you lose the most expensive medicine, I can get better faster." So, do infusions and antibiotics really work when you have a fever and a cold?

There is no bacterial infection and no antibiotics are needed.

Feng Wenli, a pharmacist in charge at Beijing Chaoyang Hospital affiliated to Capital Medical University, believes that intravenous drips or antibiotics are only suitable for infections caused by bacteria, and are not effective for all respiratory diseases. "If the runny nose is white, antibiotics are not needed; If you have a dark yellow or blue nasal discharge, you need antibiotics. Feng Wenli said that the intravenous drip actually has an anti-inflammatory effect, but if you encounter a cold and fever caused by a virus, it will not work at all.

Long-term use of antibiotics can also lead to hazards such as drug resistance.

Some patients think that they can be cured quickly by using more new and expensive drugs, and if they have a slight cold, fever and cough, they will take penicillin, amoxicillin, roxithromycin, ofloxacin, etc., and after a few days, they will be replaced with cefotaxime, ceftriaxone, azithromycin, fleroxacin, etc., and regard antibiotics as a panacea for anti-inflammatory and fever-reducing medicine. As everyone knows, such an abuse of antibiotics not only destroys the microecological balance in the human body, harms health, but also increases the number of drug-resistant bacteria. Dr. Zhang Zhiren, director of the Department of Pharmacy of the Second Affiliated Hospital of Harbin Medical University, said.
