What should I do if my child has a fever and stomachache?

Generally, children have poor resistance and may experience fever and stomach pain in summer or other times. However, there are many reasons for fever in young children. You must consider the cause of the fever. Sometimes fever accompanied by abdominal pain and diarrhea is caused by acute gastroenteritis. This disease is generally caused by symptoms due to diet or cold stomach.

The initial symptoms of a child's fever are red face, hot forehead, cold hands and feet, and poor spirits. In addition, there are symptoms of various systems, such as runny nose, sore throat, and cough in respiratory tract infections, abdominal pain, vomiting, and diarrhea in gastroenteritis, and frequent urination, painful urination, and low back pain in urinary tract infections. The accompanying symptoms of various systems in infants are atypical, and may only include anorexia, vomiting, and diarrhea. There are many diseases that cause fever. Parents should pay attention to the pattern of their children's fever and accompanying symptoms, and go to the hospital for examination in time and receive early treatment. The normal body temperature of the human body is 36-37℃, 37-38℃ is a low fever, 38-39℃ is a moderate fever, above 39℃ is a high fever, and above 40℃ is an extremely high fever.

The first method is to use drugs and physical cooling methods. The specific medication is best used under the guidance of a doctor. In addition, diarrhea caused by long-term medication can recover on its own after stopping the medication. Generally, if the fever exceeds 38 degrees, antipyretics must be used. If the temperature is less than 38 degrees, antipyretics are generally not needed, and physical cooling is the main approach. Rub your whole body with a warm towel at 37℃ and drink plenty of warm water.

Now is the time when children are prone to getting sick because of the large temperature difference and there may be many problems with their diet. Therefore, parents must take good care of their children. Once you find that your child has symptoms of fever or stomach pain, you must deal with it in time. In addition, you should add different clothes for your child according to the different temperatures.
