Can children use electric fans when they have a fever?

As we all know, babies at home are prone to fever, which is closely related to the baby's low resistance. Once the baby has a fever, it will definitely greatly affect the physical and mental health. Therefore, we must take preventive measures in normal times, such as reasonably adjusting the baby's living environment. If the baby has a fever, we must pay more attention to related matters, such as not using a fan for the child at this time.

Can children use electric fans when they have a fever?

Do not use an electric fan when your baby has a fever. Just keep the indoor and outdoor areas ventilated. It is recommended that babies with fever should receive active symptomatic treatment. The temperature can be reduced physically or by taking medication. Using an electric fan will aggravate the baby's condition, and it is easy to catch a cold. Instead, the baby should drink more water and be careful not to catch a cold. At the same time, it is recommended not to take medicine, but to supplement with fruits rich in vitamin C, keep warm and rest, and wait patiently for two days, and the baby will get better. Mothers can also use clean water or alcohol to wipe the baby's body to cool down.

When a child has a fever, the room should be kept ventilated and the air should be fresh. If an electric fan is really needed to help with ventilation or the person accompanying the child needs to use an electric fan to "cool down", then there should absolutely be no "direct wind" directed at the child. The fan can be turned on in a place where the wind direction cannot reach the child.

Moreover, if a child has a fever, he or she cannot be in an air-conditioned room. First, the temperature in the air-conditioned room may be low, which is not conducive to the child's condition. Second, the ventilation effect and air quality in air-conditioned rooms are generally not ideal, which is not conducive to children. Therefore, he or she cannot be in an air-conditioned room.

Therefore, when a baby has a fever, it is generally recommended not to use an electric fan, as this can easily cause a cold and aggravate the condition. It is best to keep the room ventilated. However, if you really need to use an electric fan, you must remember not to let the fan blow directly at the baby, and it is best to hold the baby away from the fan. In addition, babies with fever cannot stay in air-conditioned rooms.

Can babies use electric fans?

In the hot summer, some young mothers use electric fans to blow air on their babies to cool them down. This is not good for the children's health.

Unlike adults, babies have delicate skin and abundant capillaries. Their body temperature regulation center is not yet fully developed and has poor regulation function. Electric fans have a concentrated wind source and strong wind force. The capillaries in areas where the wind blows contract, and sweat evaporates faster. The capillaries in areas where the wind does not blow continue to expand, and the sweat pores remain open to dissipate sweat. This causes the body temperature regulation center and the blood circulation center to lose balance, which can easily cause colds, headaches, fevers, coughs and other symptoms. Therefore, do not use an electric fan to blow air on your baby.

If the weather is too hot and the baby sweats a lot, you can wipe the sweat with a dry towel or give the baby a bath with warm water. The blood vessels under the skin will expand when exposed to heat and the heat in the body will be dissipated. You can also use a fan to fan gently. This kind of wind is gentler and easier for babies to accept.
