What to do if your 2-year-old baby has repeated fevers

What should I do if my two-year-old baby has recurring fever? This is something that many parents are very worried about. After all, the baby's physical health is very important. So what should we do once the baby shows such symptoms of fever? Many parents are very confused. What should they do if their baby, especially a two or three-year-old baby, has a fever? Let’s take a look at the experts’ introduction below.

According to the degree of fever, fever can be divided into four types: low fever: body temperature is between 37.5 and 38 degrees Celsius; moderate fever: body temperature is between 38.1 and 39 degrees Celsius; high fever: body temperature is between 39.1 and 40.4 degrees Celsius; very high fever: body temperature is above 40.5 degrees Celsius.

This often happens to children when the weather gets hot or the seasons change. They have a high fever. Giving them injections and taking medicines can only temporarily reduce the temperature. Once the effect of the medicine wears off, the child's temperature will go up again. The high fever often lasts for two to three days. During this period, you should give your child medicine on time. It is best not to give him injections because he is too young. Then wipe his whole body with alcohol cotton and clamp it under his armpits. Then take a little anti-inflammatory medicine. He should be fine in a day or two because it takes some time for the inflammation to disappear. The human body's hypothalamus has a body temperature regulation center, which functions like the temperature setting of an air conditioner. Under normal circumstances, the temperature set for infants and young children is slightly higher than that for adults. The rectal temperature of infants and young children is about 37.5 degrees Celsius, with a fluctuation of about one degree. The oral temperature of adults and older children is approximately 36.8 degrees Celsius, with a fluctuation of 0.5 degrees. If the set temperature is raised, for example, if the human body is infected with pathogens, causing the white blood cells to react and produce "thermophores", it will stimulate the temperature regulation center of the hypothalamus. When the set temperature is adjusted to 39°C, the body produces heat through muscle trembling and contraction, or reduces sweating to dissipate heat, raising the body temperature to 39°C. So before a fever occurs, you may feel chills and shiver, and then suddenly have a high fever, producing certain bacterial toxins. This phenomenon is particularly obvious. Many parents have also observed that their children tend to have high fevers at night. This is because the water content in infants and young children's bodies is higher than that in adults. Even a slight lack of water will affect heat dissipation and make them prone to fever. When children are sick, they have less strength and sleep for a long time. If you don't eat or drink for a long time at night, your body temperature will naturally rise.

After the above introduction by the editor, I believe that everyone must have a better understanding of the repeated fever in two-year-old babies. I hope that these introductions can help parents better understand the situation of baby's fever and take measures to treat the disease as soon as possible. It is recommended that parents go to a regular hospital and receive professional treatment from a doctor so that their baby's fever can be cured as soon as possible.
