Treatment of bacterial infection and fever in children

Children are the flowers of the motherland. Every parent needs to take good care of their children in daily life. But there is still a lot of room for improvement. When children are not kept warm, they will catch a cold. For example, bacterial infection and fever are something that almost every child has encountered. So how to treat it? The following article will introduce it to you.

Post-diagnosis precautions

After a visit to the hospital, when you return home, there are simple things a mother can do to make her baby more comfortable.

Drink more water. Drinking water helps to sweat and dissipate heat, lower body temperature and replenish the water lost by the child's body. Drinking water is not limited to plain water. You can let your child drink some of his or her favorite fruit juice, beverages, etc. to replenish water and vitamins, or drink more soup. When a child is sick and has no appetite, you can let him/her eat some cake, tofu, etc. Pay attention to keeping warm. Insulation does not mean the warmer the better. When your child has a fever, remember not to let him dress in too many clothes or cover him with too thick a quilt. This traditional method of "covering up sweat" is not conducive to dissipating heat and reducing fever. Just let the child wear one more piece of clothing than the normal adult. For example, when the adult wears short sleeves, the child can wear long sleeves. When the adult wears one long skirt, the child can wear two.

Take a warm shower. Some mothers worry that giving their children a bath while they have a fever will aggravate the symptoms. After having a fever, you sweat a lot. If you don’t keep clean, it is easy to cause infection by other bacteria, so taking a shower is necessary, but you must use warm water, and the water temperature is best at 38-39℃. Wiping or bathing your child's entire body with warm water can dilate the blood vessels in his or her skin and increase heat dissipation. After taking a shower, wrap your child in a large towel to prevent him from catching a cold.

The above is an introduction to bacterial infection and fever in children, one of the main causes and how to prevent and treat it. Parents and friends have learned about it in great detail here. In daily life, it is recommended that you pay attention to your child’s physical health. Once you find that your child has a fever or a cold, take the child to the hospital for treatment in time.
