What should I do if my two-year-old child has a fever of 39.5 degrees?

The reason why many babies have fever is mostly caused by colds. You should take your baby out for walks more often, which is good for the child. Also, do not let your child be picky about food. At the same time, you should pay attention to keeping your child warm. Add or remove clothes for him/her as the weather changes. Also, keep the room clean to prevent the child from inhaling dust and causing other diseases. Below is some information that the editor has collected, let’s take a look.

1. For infants under one and a half years old, the anterior fontanelle has not yet completely closed. Parents can cover the child's anterior fontanelle with the palm of their hand after the child falls asleep, and continue to cover it until the child's head sweats slightly. At this time, when looking at the baby again, you will find that the nose is unblocked, the breathing is stable, and the temperature has dropped. At this time, parents can wake up the baby and feed him more warm water or brown sugar water, and the baby will soon recover.

The shortest time was only 15 minutes, and the longest time was one and a half hours. The specific time depends on the child's situation. . Therefore, when covering the baby's anterior fontanelle with the palm of your hand, parents must not be anxious. It is best for the child's father to do it, as men have high temperatures and babies are prone to sweating.

2. Most children's fever is caused by colds. When they have a fever, their hands and feet are cold, their tongue coating is white, their face is pale, and their urine is light in color. Parents can use ginger and brown sugar water to dispel the cold for their children, and the effect is good. If 2 to 3 pieces of green onion cut into one-inch long are added to the ginger and brown sugar water, the effect will be better. If the child is afraid of spicy food, you can add two slices of ginger, two pieces of green onion, and a few drops of vinegar to the porridge for the child. After cooking, remove the ginger and green onion and feed it to the child. It can dispel cold, induce sweating, and reduce fever. The effect is good, and children are willing to eat it. Parents can feed their children 2 to 3 times a day. Do not add onions after the child's fever subsides. Ginger can also be omitted when the tongue coating is no longer white.

When a child has a fever, parents must reduce the child's temperature as soon as possible. Try to feed the child light food before the child recovers. Also, never feed the child before a meal, as this will make the child not want to eat. Parents must take their children out for walks more often, because the air outdoors is fresher, which is good for children's health.
