How to reduce the fever of a child with a fever of 38 degrees?

Children's resistance is relatively weak, so they are prone to illness and have difficulty recovering. They are also unable to express their physical condition in time, which can worsen the disease. Parents should pay more attention to their children's physical condition, and any abnormalities should be checked and treated in time to avoid missing the best time for treatment. Sometimes when a child is sick, he or she may not seem to be abnormal on the surface, such as having a high fever. Because the child is playing, no one pays much attention to it. So how do you reduce a child's fever of 38 degrees?

1. When the baby's body temperature is below 38.5°C, physical cooling should be used. Let the hot towel cool down and apply it to the baby's forehead. Be careful not to make it too cold, otherwise it will cause discomfort to the baby.

2. If you need to go out and it is inconvenient to use a hot towel to cool down, you can use a cooling patch, which is convenient and effective. Generally, cooling patches are effective within 8 hours. When applying a fever-reducing patch, be careful not to let children peel it off casually, as this will affect the effect.

3. In addition to applying a hot towel to the child's forehead, parents can also carefully wipe the child's entire body with a hot towel. By wiping, the child's entire body can be cooled down and the child will feel more comfortable.

4. After the above-mentioned physical cooling methods, if the child's fever symptoms are effectively alleviated, you can continue to help the child sweat, cover him with more quilts, etc. Sweating more will help reduce the fever faster.

Through the above detailed introduction from various aspects on how to reduce a child's fever of 38 degrees, I believe everyone has already understood it very well. Parents should pay more attention to their children's physical health so that they can receive treatment as soon as possible when adverse reactions occur and avoid the danger caused by delays. I hope parents can let their children do some exercise regularly to improve their physical fitness.
