What should I do if my 24-month-old child has a fever?

For a woman, after giving birth, she will become a real woman, and will have great improvements in character and other aspects, because the arrival of a new life makes the mother feel happier and more responsible. However, for first-time mothers, lack of experience may cause many problems. For example, if a 24-month-old baby has a fever, what should you do? Let’s study it carefully today.

The baby has no other symptoms except fever. It may be an upper respiratory tract infection. Check the baby's blood routine. If the blood count is high, give the baby oral cefixime granules and Pueraria lobata oral liquid to prevent infection. Drink plenty of water and use warm water to cool down. If the fever is high, take oral ibuprofen granules to reduce fever. At the same time, pay attention to whether the baby has herpes in the mouth, hands, and feet to rule out hand, foot and mouth disease.

If the body temperature is lower than 38.5℃ during a fever, physical cooling can be adopted first. Use warm water to wipe the baby's armpits, groin, neck and other places where the large arteries run. At the same time, pay attention to ventilation in the room and the clothes and quilts should not be too thick. Refill warm water in time. If the baby's fever does not subside, the body temperature exceeds 38.5°C, and is accompanied by other discomforts, it is recommended to seek medical attention in time to avoid delaying the condition.

High white blood cell count may be bacterial. But you've taken so many antibiotics, your white blood cell count won't be too high. Do you see high eosinophils? Generally, the eosinophil count will be higher in bronchitis.

Don’t take antipyretics lightly. Only feed when the temperature is above 39 degrees. Be sure to drink plenty of water. You can try pear juice and monk fruit. If it is pneumonia, it is normal to not get better for half a month. The child has a good foundation and will learn faster.

After reading so many methods, mothers should have the best plan, so they should have a lot of experience in taking care of their babies. While taking care of their babies, they are also increasing their knowledge. This is also a good learning method, and everyone grows together. However, if the baby is sick, the safest thing is to go to the hospital for treatment.
