What should I do if my child has a fever at night?

Because children have relatively poor physical resistance, they are prone to fever at night. For such children who have a fever at night, the mothers must provide detailed care. Effective care measures can alleviate the fever. The long-term health of the child must also be considered, and appropriate treatment methods should be used to promote recovery.

The principle of treatment is to keep the temperature below 38.5 degrees. Do not take antipyretic medicine or get antipyretic injections, and let the baby drink plenty of water. Pay attention to whether the ambient temperature is too high. In the hot summer, the temperature is very high and the baby's ability to regulate its own body temperature is poor. When the mother holds the baby, the heat is not easy to dissipate, causing the body temperature to rise. However, this kind of fever usually does not last too long. Put the child in a cool place, fan him slightly, give him some cool fruit juice, or give him a warm bath, and the body temperature will return to normal after a few hours. In winter, if the indoor temperature is too high and the baby is wrapped too much, the baby's body temperature will also rise.

If the fever is above 38.5 degrees, please ask a doctor immediately to confirm whether it is a viral infection or a bacterial infection. If it is a viral infection, use antiviral drugs (such as ribavirin); if it is a bacterial infection, use antibiotics (such as cephalosporins). Do not rush to reduce the fever. The fever is only a symptom and the cause of the disease must be found out.

The methods mentioned above are very effective for treating children's fever. I hope they can help treat children's fever.

It has a certain relieving effect. Through reasonable treatment and care, it can help patients to recover related systems, so we must be careful.

Treating the disease again can promote early recovery.
