How many days does it take for a child with pharyngitis and fever to recover?

It is a very common phenomenon for children to have a fever in daily life. Generally speaking, acute pharyngitis will cause the baby to have a fever. The fever caused by pharyngitis will basically heal in about a week, but the specific treatment still needs to be determined based on the child's physical condition. Parents should not be too anxious during this period. Usually, give the baby more water, pay more attention to light diet, and try to eat liquid food to avoid nutrient loss.

How many days does it take for pharyngitis and fever to heal?

Fever caused by pharyngitis is usually caused by viral or bacterial infection, and the fever lasts for about 3 to 5 days. The onset of the disease may be related to cold, fatigue, and dietary factors. Pay attention to rest, eat more fresh vegetables and fruits, quit spicy food, tobacco, and alcohol. Drink more water during the illness, pay attention to rest, eat a lighter diet, change bad living habits, enhance nutrition, exercise properly, improve your resistance, do a blood test, consider whether it is a viral infection, and seek medical attention in time.

What are the causes of fever?

1. The body is invaded by external bacteria and infected by bacteria and viruses. It is caused by bacteria, viruses, and protozoa. This is the most common cause. Such as colds, pneumonia, bronchitis, malaria, etc.

2. There may be problems with one's own resistance, which is mainly caused by endogenous pyrogens. The body temperature regulation center must readjust the body temperature and send out impulses, increase metabolism through pituitary endocrine factors, or contract skeletal muscles through motor nerves to increase heat production.

If you want to have a good body that is immune to all poisons, it is not as simple as just talking about it. You need to take actual actions. You should run more often and breathe fresh air. Don't always stay in a closed environment. Pay attention to air circulation. Open the windows when the weather is good. Pay attention to keeping warm. Don't eat and drink indiscriminately and live a regular life.

What to do if your child has repeated fever

Commonly used physical cooling methods:

1. Warm water bath: use 30°C warm water to bathe your child for 20 to 30 minutes. When mothers are bathing their children, they should prevent the children from being blown by cold wind.

2. Use ice packs to cool down. Apply an ice pack on the child's forehead to dissipate heat and cool down. At the same time, keep the air flowing at home to avoid the room being too stuffy. If the air is not flowing, wear loose clothes and avoid wrapping the child with a quilt. At the same time, children must drink water and get plenty of rest.

Commonly used methods of drug cooling:

If a child has a high fever, you can use highly effective antipyretic drugs such as ibuprofen suspension or Tylenol. Although this type of highly effective antipyretic drug has obvious antipyretic effects, children have poor resistance and taking the drug may have slight side effects on the body. If a child takes this type of antipyretic for more than 48 hours and still has a high fever, he or she should go to the hospital immediately.

Another type of antipyretic drug commonly used by children is thrombolytic drugs. This medicine is inserted into the child's anus and rectum and has a rapid and obvious effect. But it cannot be used multiple times because it will cause damage to the rectal mucosa. Generally, when a child has a particularly severe high fever, it is used in combination with high-efficiency antipyretic drugs, cooling patches, etc.

When using medication to reduce fever, please note:

1. Avoid children taking multiple antipyretic drugs at the same time. It is best not to take the medicine more than 4 times a day, and there should be at least 4 hours between each dose.

2. When giving your baby antipyretic medicine, pay attention to whether the baby has allergies or other adverse reactions. If you find any symptoms such as allergies or discomfort, you should consult a doctor immediately.
