How to treat a baby who has a fever and keeps yawning

Children are very prone to getting sick, especially when they have a fever. Some are caused by colds, some are caused by wind-cold, and some are caused by viral infections. I believe that all parents have this experience. Children will have many uncomfortable symptoms when they have a fever. The most common ones are lack of energy and poor appetite. There are also many children who always yawn when they have a fever. How to treat this?

Fever is a symptom of a cold. It is caused by viruses, bacteria and their metabolites stimulating the body to release excessive endogenous substances such as prostaglandins, which act on the body's temperature regulation center. An increase in the child's body temperature will definitely cause the child to become drowsy, lack of energy, and lead to yawning and other symptoms. Moreover, since the child is in a high fever state, it will affect the child's spirit and oxygen supply to the brain, so symptoms of yawning during fever will appear.

treat:

First, antiviral treatment can be taken orally with Chinese patent medicines that have the effects of clearing away heat and detoxifying;

The second is antibacterial treatment, which can take penicillin or cephalosporin antibiotics, but the time should be more than one week;

The third is symptomatic treatment, such as reducing fever (over 38 degrees), but these drugs have a short half-life and cannot maintain the cooling effect all night. It is recommended to prepare a box of pediatric antipyretic suppositories for children to use anally before going to bed to prevent high fever convulsions caused by a sudden rise in body temperature at night.

Fever is generally a defensive reaction. If the body temperature is below 38.5 degrees, no antipyretic drugs are needed. Just rest, keep warm, and drink plenty of warm water. If the body temperature is above 38.5 degrees, you can take ibuprofen preparations or paracetamol for symptomatic treatment, and you can also do physical cooling treatment.

The above are some treatment methods for babies with fever and yawning. Mothers must pay attention to them and learn more about some health knowledge about babies. Let children go out for more exercise and sunbathing to ensure they have a healthy physique. If your baby becomes ill and has serious symptoms, please be sure to take him to the doctor to avoid serious consequences.
