How to reduce fever in children physically

Only when you become a parent yourself can you appreciate how difficult it is to be a parent. As new parents, we are always afraid that our babies will get sick or have a fever. Once they show signs of illness, mothers will be particularly scared and even more nervous than if they were sick themselves. Take the matter of children having a fever, for example. Mothers always have questions, wondering whether it is better to give them injections or infusions, or to use physical cooling methods. In fact, physical cooling should be used when the child's fever is not serious, but this process requires constant attention. Regarding physical cooling, this is what should be done.

1The temperature reaches 39.2. This is a typical manifestation caused by inflammatory infection. In this case, you need to actively go to the hospital for drug treatment and use some anti-inflammatory drugs to achieve a good treatment effect. At the same time, routine blood tests are required.

2 The above situation means that the child has a cold and fever. You should still be cautious if the above symptoms exist. Currently, the child has a high fever, so it is best to seek medical treatment. In the above situation, it is recommended that you choose to see a doctor and inject an injection of analgesia to reduce fever, and cooperate with intravenous drugs to fight viruses, clear away heat and detoxify. The effect is relatively reliable. Then measure the body temperature. After the fever subsides, you can go home and drink more water to adjust yourself. At present, physical fever reduction such as alcohol bath may not be effective.

3 When the baby's body temperature exceeds 38.5 degrees, you can consider trying ibuprofen suspension, Ruizhiqing, Zaixin or physical cooling under the guidance of a doctor!

Physical cooling - you can dilute the alcohol and wipe the baby's armpits, temples, groin, etc.; you can also cover the forehead with a cold towel.

4 Coughing is actually a protective reflex, which helps to expel foreign matter or sputum! It is recommended not to use only antitussive drugs, but to choose cough and expectorant drugs - compound licorice tablets, etc. If cough seriously affects the quality of life, you can try under the guidance of a doctor: centrally acting cough suppressants such as chlorpromazine or carbetapentane plus bromhexine. You can also consider boiling some pear water for your baby to drink. If necessary, take an X-ray of the baby to rule out conditions such as bronchitis and pneumonia.

5In addition, it is recommended to have a routine blood test. If the white blood cell count is elevated, it is recommended to try antibiotics (Dalifen, Azithromycin Granules, etc.) under the guidance of a doctor in the absence of allergies. If the white blood cell count is not high, but the lymphocyte percentage is increased, you can consider taking antiviral treatment with oral ribavirin granules, Qingkailing oral liquid, Isatis root granules and other drugs under the guidance of a doctor! Simple upper respiratory tract infection generally does not require antibiotic treatment and can usually be relieved on its own.

6In addition, let your baby drink more water, rest more, and supplement vitamin C appropriately!
