This will prevent the heat from dissipating and cause high fever convulsions. You can use ice packs to cool the child down, that is, fill a hot water bottle with tap water, then wrap it with a thin cloth, and place it on the child's forehead or head. You can also use cold water compresses, that is, soak a small towel in flash water or well water, wring it until half dry, and apply it to the forehead, fossa, elbows, groin and other places where large blood vessels pass, changing it every 2 to 3 minutes.

In addition to the above cooling methods, you can also consult a doctor and use medication to reduce fever if necessary. Under the premise of drug treatment, parents should encourage their children to drink more water and mainly eat high-calorie juice, such as watermelon, rice soup, egg drop soup, red date soup, etc., in consideration of the characteristics of the child's accelerated metabolism and reduced digestive function after fever. These foods can provide energy to meet the body's needs.
