Children generally have a poor physique and are very susceptible to bacterial infections, leading to various diseases such as colds, fevers, etc. This is also a concern for many parents. Repeated bacterial infections and the baby's illness has not improved, so what should we do? Today, the editor will talk to parents about what we should do when the baby has a fever caused by bacterial infection. The most common cause of fever in children in summer is upper respiratory tract infection, which usually presents symptoms such as sneezing, chills, coughing, and headache. If the fever is not high, below 39 degrees Celsius, it can be dealt with at home. Let your child get more sleep, drink more water, take some cold medicine, and he will be fine after a few days of rest. Don't be too nervous. If a child has a high fever above 39 degrees Celsius, pneumonia should be suspected. If the child has a severe cough and persistent high fever, and in severe cases, convulsions may occur, the child should be sent to the hospital for treatment immediately. Many people think that pneumonia is caused by fever. This view is incorrect and the cause and effect are reversed. The most worthy of attention is the fever caused by bacterial dysentery. The fever is very high. Once coma occurs, it may be a manifestation of bacteriotoxicity. The patient should be sent to the hospital for emergency treatment in time, otherwise his life will be in danger. If the baby has a fever of about 38 degrees, physical cooling is recommended (such as 1. Keep the room temperature at 21℃~23℃; 2. Let the child rest in bed, open the blanket or take off excess clothes; 3. Feed the child with cold boiled water or cold drinks frequently, 250 ml a night. 4. Apply an ice pack to the forehead. 5. For high fever, you can wipe the baby's joints with alcohol, take a warm bath, and soak the child in warm water 4℃~6℃ lower than body temperature for 5~10 minutes, then wipe the whole body dry with a large towel and gently massage the skin until it turns red; you can also use warm water at 32℃~34℃. Bacteria are everywhere, so parents must pay more attention, maintain personal hygiene in daily life, and do not let their babies come into contact with dirty things. If you find that your baby has a fever, do not force the fever down by yourself. Go to the hospital for treatment as soon as possible to avoid delaying the best treatment time. By taking more precautions in daily life, your health can be guaranteed. |
