What to do if your child has a fever and convulsions due to the cold

Children usually get a fever due to the cold during the change of seasons. In spring and winter, children are active and will take off their outer clothes when they get hot. If they are not put on more clothes in time. It will definitely cause symptoms of fever and cold. This kind of fever must attract the attention of parents. If it is serious, it will cause coughing and fever, which will affect the healthy development of the child. So the following are some recommended measures to be taken when the child has a fever due to the cold.

There are three reasons why children often catch colds: First, the child’s physical condition is poor, such as suffering from chronic upper respiratory tract inflammation, malnutrition or rickets, etc., which reduces resistance to disease and makes them prone to colds. Children who lack exercise and rarely go outdoors have poor physical fitness and are more likely to catch colds. The second is the influence of the child’s bedroom and living environment. Surveys show that children are more likely to catch colds in homes where the room temperature is too low or the indoor and outdoor hygiene conditions are too poor.

After finding out the causes and taking corresponding measures to eliminate them, your child will avoid catching colds frequently. If a child suffers from upper respiratory tract inflammation or other diseases, he or she should be treated promptly and thoroughly. For children who have low activity levels and seldom go outdoors, their outdoor activity time should be gradually increased starting from summer and autumn to enhance their physical fitness. When the indoor temperature in a home or nursery is too low or the temperature difference is too large, we should actively create conditions to improve the living environment for children. When someone in the family has a cold, they should pay attention to self-isolation, avoid contact with children, and be careful not to pass the cold to the children. Children who often suffer from colds should be given appropriate vitamin A supplements, such as oral cod liver oil drops or cod liver oil capsules, and eat more foods rich in vitamin A, such as pork liver, carrots, and tomatoes.

Children's health cannot be ignored, and small details of life are crucial. Be sure to put more clothes on your children on rainy days. Bring a towel to wipe their backs when they sweat while playing. Try not to take off their coats at other times. If a child catches a cold, he or she will easily develop a fever as his or her physical fitness is not as strong as that of an adult. I hope this health knowledge will be helpful to you and your children.
