Three different methods of reducing fever in children

When parents know that their children have a fever, every responsible parent will be very anxious. They all think that if their children cannot reduce the fever as soon as possible, it will cause serious harm to their children's intelligence and health. Therefore, many parents want to know three different methods of reducing fever in children. In order for you to understand as soon as possible, let's take a look at the introduction below.

1. Ice pillow: When your baby has a high fever, you can make an ice pillow for him to use. It is comfortable and effective. Go to the hospital and buy an ice pack (not a hot water bottle). Pour the ice into a basin, break it into small pieces, rinse off the edges with water, put them into an ice bag, add 50 to 100 ml of water (do not fill it up, 2/3 full will be enough), expel the air, clamp the bag, wrap it with cloth or towel and place it under the baby's head and neck as a pillow. When the ice cubes melt, you can replace them and the baby's body temperature will drop soon.

2. Soaking your feet in hot water can promote blood circulation and relieve discomfort. Another benefit of soaking your baby's feet when he has a fever is that it can help reduce the temperature. You can use a large basin or a small bucket for foot soaking. Pour 2/3 of the basin with water. The water temperature should be slightly higher than usual, around 40 degrees Celsius, and it should be based on what the baby can adapt to. When soaking the baby's feet, the mother can rub the baby's two little feet, which can not only dilate the blood vessels but also relieve the discomfort caused by fever.

3. For cold compress, you can go to the store to buy chemical ice packs, put them in the refrigerator when using, take them out after they turn from gel to solid, wrap them in a towel and apply them to the baby's head, forehead, neck, armpits, groin, etc., and can be used repeatedly. You can also make your own ice packs at home: fill a disposable medical silicone glove with water, tie a knot, and place it in the freezer. Freeze it into a solid state before using. If you feel the ice is too cold, you can take out the ice bag when it is half ice and half water, wrap it in a towel and apply cold compress to your baby.

The three different methods of reducing fever in children are introduced above in detail for many parents. Therefore, parents, when their children have a fever, do not wait. Through the medical and physical treatment methods introduced above, you can help your children reduce fever as soon as possible, so that your children will not cause physical harm due to fever.
