What should I do if my child has a fever after eating too much?

Fever is a common disease in children. Fever means that the child’s body has been infected, causing a stress response in the body’s immunity. Although fever is a manifestation of the body's immune system fighting the virus, if the fever lasts too long it will cause damage to the body's functions, especially the brain. Therefore, children's fever must be dealt with promptly. Let's take a look at what to do if a child has a fever due to eating too much?

If the fever is caused by food accumulation in the body, then you should first consider adjusting the diet structure and eat small and frequent meals to give the stomach and intestines space to digest. At the same time, the diet should be light and the child should drink plenty of water. You can massage the child's abdomen appropriately to promote gastrointestinal motility and accelerate metabolic function. If the fever is severe, seek medical attention immediately.

In fact, the so-called food accumulation means that the child’s stomach and intestines cannot move and cannot digest the food, so don’t let your child eat too much and keep the diet light. If you don't want to use antipyretics, give your child some metoclopramide suspension, which can help revitalize your child's stomach. It is not an antipyretic. If the child's indigestion problem is solved, the fever will most likely subside. Pay attention and observe more.

Drink more water. Drinking water helps to sweat and dissipate heat, lower body temperature and replenish the water lost by the child's body. Drinking water is not limited to plain water. You can let your child drink some of his or her favorite fruit juice, beverages, etc. to replenish water and vitamins, or drink more soup. When a child is sick and has no appetite, you can let him/her eat some cake, tofu, etc.

Children are young and weak, and their various functions are not yet fully developed, so we must pay more attention to their diet. Eating too much or too little is not good for health and will affect the normal development of children. Therefore, scientific parenting is still very necessary. Even if problems arise, you must believe in scientific medical methods and not take medication blindly to avoid delaying the treatment.

Children are the treasures of every parent, and they all hope that they can grow up healthy and safe. However, it is normal for them to get sick and they need to be treated rationally. Don't panic. Go to the hospital for examination as soon as a problem occurs. Only by determining the cause can better treatment be provided, which can alleviate the child's pain and reduce the risks brought by the disease.
