How many days does a baby have a bacterial fever?

The baby's health is the most concerned issue for parents. Any discomfort will make them very worried, especially fever. Therefore, it is particularly important to understand some knowledge about baby's bacterial fever. If your baby has a bacterial fever, you can wipe the body with warm water and ask them to drink more warm water. At the same time, you must ensure that the environment is well ventilated and the temperature is moderate. However, the specific recovery time will vary depending on the baby's own physical condition.

1. How many days will it take for a baby to recover from bacterial infection and fever?

If the baby's body temperature is below 38.5℃, there is no need to take antipyretics, but other measures can be taken to reduce the temperature. First of all, the indoor environment should be kept quiet, the temperature should be moderate (18℃～25℃), and the ventilation should be good. The clothes and quilts should not be too thick. If the baby sweats a lot, change the clothes into clean clothes in time and wipe them with warm water. When a baby has a fever, his breathing will speed up and more water will evaporate, so it is necessary to replenish water in time and let the baby drink more warm water to encourage more urination and sweating to lower the temperature. 37.5℃ ~ 38℃ is a low fever, 38.1℃ ~ 39℃ is a moderate fever, 39.1℃ ~ 40.4℃ is a high fever, and above 40.5℃ is a very high fever. If the baby's temperature is high but it is not to the point of taking antipyretics, physical cooling can be used.

Specific method: Wet a towel with warm water, wring it slightly dry, and then wipe the baby's neck, arms, chest, back, thighs and other parts. Wipe the large blood vessels in the elbows, armpits, and neck a few more times until a slight redness appears. You can also put an ice pack or cold towel on your child's forehead to reduce the brain's oxygen consumption, thereby lowering body temperature and protecting the brain.

Do not use alcohol bath to cool down the baby, because the baby's skin is delicate and alcohol is easily absorbed into the body, which will cause the baby to be irritable and cry. If the baby's temperature is above 38.5℃, you can take antipyretics.
