Treatment of infant fever
1, check
First of all, make sure the child has a fever. Some children may have high body temperature due to exercise, so parents should distinguish between them. The way to determine a child's fever is simple. Take the child's temperature with a thermometer. If the temperature is between 37 and 38 degrees, it is a low fever. If it exceeds this range, it is a high fever. At this time, you can give your child a buffer time first. If the temperature drops slowly, then there is no problem and no measures can be taken.
2, low fever
If the child has a low fever, try not to give him antipyretics. What parents should do most is to replenish their children with enough water and give them some slightly warmer warm water, which can help them sweat and help cool down. Diet, to be light, you can drink some porridge, eat some noodles and so on. Eat less and eat more to avoid food accumulation.
Step 3 have a high fever
If the child has a high fever, parents should pay attention to it. Don't dress the children too much. Attention is not conducive to heat dissipation and cooling. You can take some physical cooling methods for your child, such as applying a warm towel on your child's forehead and wiping your armpits, palms and soles. If it persists, children should be given antipyretic drugs. High fever is very dangerous, so parents must pay attention to it.
Prevent infant fever
One of the ways to prevent your baby from having a fever: strengthen your baby's physique and do more exercise.
Some parents think it is difficult to improve their baby's immunity and resistance, but it is really not difficult. Every baby likes sports very much. As long as you take your baby to parks, community activity areas, playgrounds and other places for physical exercise every night, you can run around the playground, play basketball, football, table tennis and badminton, or jump rope and ride a bike on the basketball court. These are all physical exercises that can be carried out and have a certain effect on strengthening your baby's physique. The baby will sweat after exercise. Exciting toxins from the body will also enhance appetite, and the baby will naturally grow taller and stronger if he loves to eat more. The baby is tired after physical exercise, and the quality of sleep at night will be better, which will play a positive role in the child's physical development. Strengthening your baby's physique and doing more exercise is one of the best and most effective ways for your baby to reduce the occurrence of diseases.
The second way to prevent your baby from having a fever is to drink more herbal tea and eat less junk food.
The baby usually has a fever because there is inflammation in the body, especially tonsillitis or pharyngitis. If the baby wants to be less troubled by diseases such as fever, it is necessary to avoid inflammation in the body. If he wants to eat without inflammation, he should pay great attention. Drink more herbal tea, such as chrysanthemum, honeysuckle and winter melon tea. You can also eat more radish and winter melon soup, which can reduce the fire, which is of great help to your baby's body and will not cause constipation and other diseases. Your baby will also taste better and will not be so picky about food and anorexia. Eating less junk food, especially high-calorie and high-fat food, is even more undesirable. Cookies, fried dough sticks, pancakes, yogurt, popsicles, etc. Try not to be eaten by babies. These foods are harmful to the baby's health. If you want your baby not to be inflamed or have a fever, you must pay attention to keeping your baby healthy, eat more cool and detoxified food, and eat less high-calorie and high-fat food!
The third way to prevent your baby from having a fever: eat more nutritious green vegetables and fruits.
Nutrient-rich vegetables and fruits can help your baby to reduce the incidence of fever to some extent. Green vegetables and fruits can make your baby replenish a certain amount of water, and also make your baby cool and stop diarrhea. Fruits and vegetables can let the baby discharge the garbage accumulated in the body in time, so that the baby can keep a smooth and worry-free defecation, and can also supplement dietary fiber to help the baby absorb in the intestine, reduce the occurrence of inflammation, and make the baby less prone to diseases such as fever.
Nursing care of febrile infants
1. Physical cooling: take a bath with warm water. Dip a towel in warm water (the water temperature should not be too hot) and wipe it on the neck, armpit and thigh root for 5 ~ 10 minutes. Can it also be used commercially? Febrile hillock? Sticking (or household ice pack) on your forehead helps to cool down. Drug cooling: When the above measures are not obvious, you can take antipyretics orally.
2. Drink plenty of water and eat a liquid diet, such as watermelon juice, to ensure that your body has enough energy and water.
3. Ventilate more, pay attention to heat dissipation, wear wide clothes and avoid using quilts. You can turn on the air conditioner in summer, and the room temperature should be controlled at around 27℃. Pay attention to regular window ventilation to make indoor air convection.
4. Sleep more and ensure adequate sleep, which is conducive to the recovery of the disease.
Antipyretic drugs, such as Tylenol and anesthetic, should only be used after a high fever with a temperature of 39 degrees. However, when a baby under 3 years old has a high fever, physical cooling should be adopted first. Generally, do not inject antipyretics or take antipyretics to avoid collapse and drug toxicity. The use of other drugs should also be cautious. Regardless of whether the fever has gone down or not, parents should take their children to find out the cause of the fever as much as possible. Forced cooling is unscientific.
