How to use ice packs for fever, how long should ice packs be applied for physical cooling and change

If you have a high fever, it is recommended not to apply ice, the friend above makes sense, physical cooling is not much help to the body, because the fever itself is heated by the immune system in the body in order to kill the virus in the body, you can cool down not only will not reduce the fever, but also not good for the body, but may burn the body. Of course, the human head should not be too hot, otherwise it will cause serious consequences to the brain, you can use a warm and damp cloth to wipe the head, or occasionally cool the brain, should not be ice for too long. I have summed up my experience and there are two ways to deal with fever, first, do a moderate amount of exercise or take a hot bath to make the body sweat, second, drink salt water, fever sweats a lot, and too much salt loss can also replenish the nutrients needed.

If the condition is serious, you should see a doctor. Take medicine and injections as the doctor prescribes.

This depends on personal feelings, generally an ice pack can be changed to a different position when it is fast.

The following common methods are commonly used to cool the physical cooling of fever:

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 pack with Xiaoice and a small amount of water until it is half full, discharge the air in the bag, press the mouth of the bag, and place it on the pillow without leakage.

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

4. Alcohol scrub bath: suitable for high heat cooling. Prepare 20% 35% alcohol 200 300 ml, scrub the limbs and back.

Ice packs are generally used to reduce fever for low-grade fever or the early stage of fever, and people with high fever need to seek medical attention in the hospital.

Fever is generally reduced by interval ice, that is, every 20 minutes or so, ice is applied once for about 10 minutes, and the temperature is controlled at about 15 (the temperature acceptable to the patient is appropriate) During the ice compress, it should be noted that the local area should not be applied at low temperature for a long time, otherwise it will be damaged.

Also pay attention to drying the water droplets on the surface during the ice compress.

Of course, it's best to use soft ice packs that are specifically designed for physical cooling of the human body.

Applying ice pillows or ice packs to the forehead to cool down is a common method used by many parents. However, children under 6 months should not use this method, because the baby is susceptible to external temperature, and the use of ice pillows will cause the temperature to drop too quickly, making it difficult for the baby to adapt. In addition, when the baby has a fever, the temperature of the whole body rises, and the local ice compress can only have a local cooling effect, which is not as good as wiping the whole body with warm water.

It should be noted that if the child has so-called cold reactions such as cold hands and feet, shivering all over the body, and purple lips during physical cooling treatments such as warm water scrubs and ice compresses, it should be stopped immediately.

Experts explain that when the source of the disease invades the human body, the body temperature must rise to a corresponding temperature, which is the "set temperature". Lowering the set temperature is the key to reducing fever in your child. If the set temperature is not changed, the body will still activate thermogenesis to reach the target body temperature, even if the body temperature is temporarily lowered by heat dissipation.

If the set temperature cannot be lowered by physical cooling, it is necessary to use antipyretic drugs to reduce the set temperature, and then assist in physical heat dissipation, so that the body temperature will really drop.

In addition, after the child has a fever, the addition or subtraction of clothes should be in line with the process of fever. When the set temperature rises and the body temperature begins to rise, the child will feel cold, at which point a long-sleeved breathable shirt should be added, and fever reducers can be given. Half an hour after taking the medicine, the effect of the medicine begins to work, the set temperature is lowered, the body begins to dissipate heat, the child will sweat and feel hot, at this time, you should reduce clothing, or use a warm water scrub bath to help reduce the fever.

Hello. Soft ice packs (medical ice packs) are placed in the armpits, groin and other major arteries, which is the effect of cooling and reducing fever. However, it should be noted that cold compresses need to be applied at intervals for a period of time, and the elderly, children and people with language problems need to pay attention to body temperature changes and reactions at any time.

Hope it works for you, hope!

Hello, this situation may be caused by inflammation, antipyretics are basically useless, anti-inflammatory drugs should be taken, with physical cooling, that is, the use of Ice Emperor medical ice packs for cold compress treatment and timely medical treatment.

a. Use ice packs to cool patients with high fever because the ice melts and absorbs heat, so A is correct and does not conform to the topic; b. It will not be too hot to take the bun with some cold water with your hands, because the water vaporizes and absorbs heat, so B is correct and does not meet the topic; c, in the northern very cold area the temperature is very low, so should choose a substance with a low freezing point as a temperature measuring substance, and the freezing point of mercury is high, a simple imitation of the alcohol thermometer, so c is wrong, in line with the theme d, frost is a solid Xiaoice crystal, is formed by the rapid heat release of water vapor in the dust air, belongs to condensation, so d is correct, does not meet the meaning of the question Mu Zen so choose: c
