Is there anything I can do to reduce my child s high fever?

After a fever, your child should not be overly nervous and frightened at first, but should first look at the temperature and whether there are any other accompanying symptoms. Fever is very common, most of the consideration is caused by the infection of pathogenic microorganisms such as bacteria or viruses, if the body temperature is below and there are no other symptoms, you can first take physical cooling methods to **, if more than the above should be combined with oral antipyretics to coordinate**. At this time, you should strengthen care and keep warm, do not get cold, add clothes in time when the weather turns cold, try to avoid going to the most dense places, and let the child drink more warm water to help the recovery of the condition.

When taking care of children with fever, the first thing is to control their body temperature, don't let them burn too high, children under 1 month old can not take fever-reducing medicine, can only use physical cooling methods, therefore, should open the child's bag and clothes, if necessary, use air conditioning to adjust the temperature in the room, but do not blow directly with the wind. Give your child a towel dipped in warm water to wipe his body, or bathe in warm water.

Older children can take medicine, but they should also take it again at the above time, if the child only has a little fever and has no other discomfort, there is no need to lower the body temperature in a short time, especially when the cause of the fever has not been determined. Because the increase in human body temperature is also an effective way for the human body to resist the invasion of foreign bacteria and viruses, every time the body temperature rises by one degree, the resistance will increase, so the simple cooling without investigating the root cause of the disease is not only not good for the child, but may reduce the body's resistance.

What to do if your child has a high fever, how to reduce the fever1. Warm water scrub bath.

Use a towel dipped in warm water (the water temperature is not hot) and wipe on the neck, armpits, and thighs for 5 to 10 minutes. You can also use commercially available "antipyretic patches" (or household ice packs) on the forehead to help dissipate heat and cool down, and infant antipyretic patches should always be kept at home.

2. Take antipyretics.

When your baby has a fever of more than a few potatoes, the doctor will consider using oral agents or ** suppositories to reduce the baby's fever. Or when the above physical measures are not obvious, oral antipyretics can be used to cool down.

3. Use antipyretic patches.

The use of antipyretic patches when fever is a very effective method, for patients whose condition is not very serious, the use of antipyretic patches can make the fever more effective to control.

4. Ventilation and heat dissipation.

Ventilation should be more, pay attention to heat dissipation, dress loosely, and avoid wrapping it in a quilt. In summer, air conditioning can be used, the room temperature is controlled at about 27, and attention should be paid to opening windows regularly for ventilation to make the room air convection.

5. Ensure moisture.

Drink plenty of water and eat a liquid diet, such as watermelon juice, to ensure that the body has sufficient energy and water requirements to avoid accidents.

6. Take off too much clothing.

7. Ensure sleep.

Getting enough sleep can help you recover.

8. Use a cold water bag as a pillow.

When you have a fever of 39 degrees, you can use a cold water bag as a pillow, which can effectively take away some of the heat. Using a cold water bag as a pillow can help children speed up the reduction of fever.

If your child has a high fever, the wrong way to reduce the fever1. Cover heat and sweat.

Some elderly people think that if a child has a high fever, sweating can reduce the fever. In fact, there is no scientific basis for this practice at all. Sweating not only makes it easy for children to lack oxygen to their brains, but also may cause metabolic poisoning.

No matter which of the above situations happens, it will bring great harm to the child's body.

2. Indiscriminate consumption of antipyretics.

When some parents find that their child has a high fever, their first reaction is to find fever-reducing medicine for him to eat. It is necessary to remind everyone that taking antipyretic medicine must be carried out under the guidance of a doctor, and never take it blindly.

3. Rub your body with alcohol.

This cooling method of alcohol rubbing has been circulated among the people for a long time, but Sister Yu does not recommend everyone to use it for children. Although alcohol can take away heat during the volatilization process, it will cause the lower capillary blood vessels to constrict, resulting in an increase in body heat, which in turn accelerates the rise of body temperature. If too much alcohol is applied, the child may also experience alcohol poisoning, which is a serious threat to health.

What to pay attention to when your baby has a feverInfants and young children under the age of 3 should first use physical cooling methods when they have a high fever, generally do not take fever-reducing injections, do not take antipyretics, so as to avoid prostration and drug toxicity, and the use of other drugs should also be cautious. However, many parents believe that it is safe to help their baby get rid of the fever as soon as possible when they have a fever. In fact, if it is a mild disease, the fever will appear for about 2-3 days, and the normal attitude in the face of fever is to find out the ** behind the fever, and it is unscientific to forcibly cool down.

I recommend that you try not to use medicine to reduce fever, because this way is to reduce the child's immunity, but to find a way to eat some foods and nutrients that can quickly improve immunity, the child will recover quickly, and the immunity will become better and better, not repeatedly, this is our experience for many years.

Fever is a form of the body's immune response, which is a response of the body's immune system to fight bacteria and viruses. The body raises its body temperature in order to control the multiplication of bacteria and viruses, which requires a lot of energy from the body. If the fever does not exceed 39 degrees, it is a low-grade fever, do not use medicine to reduce the fever casually, only smile and have a body temperature rise above the degree to control the reproduction of bacteria and viruses, and it can get better quickly, even if the body temperature rises more than 39 degrees, if there is no serious illness, you can deal with it yourself.

Only when there is a serious illness do you go to the white coat.

If you have a fever, you can eat some foods or nutrients that can quickly improve immunity, and supplement some fruit and vegetable juices rich in vitamins and minerals, which are better than a single body that heals itself, and the recovery time is faster. You can eat the following foods to help improve your immunity.

1. Eat some high-protein foods that are easy to digest and absorb, such as kefir, fresh milk, eggs, etc. Protein is the main component of making antibodies, and only when the body has enough protein can the immunity be boosted quickly. For people who are very weak after a fever, it is necessary to eat the kind of meal replacement shake that contains more than 50 nutrients in order to quickly replenish energy and recover faster.

2. Eat some fruits rich in vitamin C, such as kiwifruit, fresh dates, hawthorn, cherries, strawberries, etc. Vitamin C can stimulate the immune system of the repentant body and improve the immune level. If the body's reaction is relatively large, we should find a way to do additional vitamin C nutritional supplements, 500-1000 mg each time, every two hours, we have been using it for more than ten years, and the effect is very good.

At the same time, you can also use vegetables and fruits to juice to drink to replenish water and minerals, you can use carrots, lettuce, lemons, cucumbers to juice and drink, every hour to squeeze a glass to drink.

3. Use some ginger, garlic, and shallots to boil water to drink, which also helps to improve immunity. Because these foods also contain a lot of plant factors that boost immunity. You can also use these ingredients and eggs to make egg drop soup to drink, which has the effect of increasing energy, dispelling cold and dissipating heat.

If you want to do better, you can directly supplement all the nutrients that can quickly improve immunity, and we often use protein powder, multi-nutrient tablets, vitamin C, and echinacea.

The child's fever can be reduced according to the specific situation by adding more water, physical cooling, etc.

1.Drink more water: After the child has a fever, he should drink more plain water, which can effectively replenish body fluids for the body, prevent dehydration, and also help to cool down.

2.Physical cooling: If the child's body temperature does not exceed the degree, physical methods can be taken to cool down, such as wiping the forehead, neck, armpits, groin and other parts by a warm towel, so as to reduce the body temperature and achieve the purpose of physical cooling.

When a child has a fever, in addition to blushing, there will also be reactions such as decreased appetite and lack of energy. At this time, most parents will be at a loss, especially some first-time mothers, who are usually very anxious when facing the baby's anti-** fever! The symptoms of a child's cold are basically the same as those of adults, but if the fever is relatively high, it may damage the child's brain and cause a series of brain diseases such as encephalitis.

Currently, our most common viral infections include influenza, rubella, measles, and chickenpox. Among the above infections, chickenpox is the most common and most susceptible to infection in children, and can also cause high fever in children.

If parents feel that they need to avoid the occurrence of high fever in their children from the source, they should first pay attention to breastfeeding their children as much as possible, and at the same time pay attention to the regulation of indoor temperature and open windows for ventilation, which means that the sanitary conditions of the room are also great protection for children. In addition, timely and timely vaccinations can also prevent children from having a high fever caused by germs, which can lead to other diseases. Therefore, as a parent, you must carefully observe the child's condition, and if you find any abnormality, do not delay and go to a professional hospital as soon as possible**.

Analysis:

Hello, in this case, it is recommended that you give your child a fever reducer, such as "ibuprofen suspension" or "nimesulide granules", etc.

Guidance: Give your child more boiled water after eating, and the fever can be reduced after the child sweats. If the child has a fever again after the fever has subsided, it means that the child has a cold or bronchitis, and should be treated with anti-inflammatory drugs and infusion**. I wish the child a speedy **.
