What should the baby do if he has a fever?

Yes, this mother's approach is very clever. Take local materials. Don't panic. It can be said that it is urgent to use! This mother must be praised. As far as I know. There are also some physical cooling methods: environmental cooling.

Environmental protection cooling method is simple and safe. In the hot season, when the indoor temperature is high, you can splash cold water on the floor, mop the floor with cold water, or turn on the air conditioner to accelerate indoor ventilation, so that the room temperature drops, which is beneficial to the heat dissipation of children with high fever. Babies can also unbutton their clothes or open bags to dissipate heat.

Physical cooling method 2: cold compress or ice compress.

Cold compress is a common physical cooling method for neonatal fever. Reduce the body temperature of the whole body or a certain part by refrigeration. At first, local blood vessels contract, then expand, and radiate heat through conduction, which can achieve the purpose of cooling down. Generally, cold compress on the head is the most common.

Specific methods: Mothers can go to the store to buy chemical ice packs, freeze them in the refrigerator when using them, take them out after turning from gel state to solid state, wrap them in towels and apply them to the baby's head, forehead, neck, armpits, groin and other places, which can be used repeatedly. You can also make your own ice pack at home: use disposable medical silicone gloves to plunge water into the freezer and freeze it into solid before taking it. If you think the ice is too cold, you can take it out in a state of half ice and half water, wrap it in a towel and give it a cold compress. You can also make a hat-shaped ice pack and put it on your child's head, make it into a pillow and put it on your child's pillow, or soak it in cold water with a towel and squeeze it dry and put it on your forehead for cold compress. Note that the local cold compress of the ice pack should not last too long, otherwise it may cause ischemia, hypoxia and frostbite.

Note: For children with rash diseases such as measles, it is not advisable to use cold compress or alcohol bath to cool down, so as not to irritate the skin and affect the rash.

Physical cooling method 3: Warm and wet compress

This is also a good way, that is, apply a warm, wet and semi-dry towel to the baby's chest and abdomen, but pay attention to the room temperature to avoid catching cold. In addition, you can also use a few cold and wet towels (about 25℃) to twist them into a semi-dry shape and put them on the baby's forehead, neck, armpits and thigh roots for cold compress. If you change it every 5 ~ 7 minutes, the baby will feel very comfortable.

Physical cooling method 4: electric fan blowing

Most families have electric fans, so mothers might as well use them to cool their newborns. Electric fan blowing can speed up the body temperature, but it can't be aimed at a certain part of the child, otherwise it will make a certain part of the child suffer from the wind.

Specific methods: you can use an electric fan to blow, or you can use an electric fan to blow. The wind cannot be too strong and the time cannot be too long. Suitable for children with good constitution and high body temperature in summer.

Physical cooling method 5: warm water bath and warm water bath.

The temperature of warm water bath should be between 36℃ and 37℃. When taking a bath, let the baby's whole body (except the head) soak in water slightly lower than the body temperature of 2℃, and at the same time use a warm wet towel (37℃) to evenly rub it on the limbs, chest and back, so as to dilate the blood vessels on the skin surface and promote heat dissipation. Rub your limbs and back for 3-5 minutes, and then rub it to places rich in blood vessels such as armpits and groin for a little longer. Take a bath for about 10- 15 minutes, about 4-6 hours, 1 time.

Physical cooling method 6: Jiang Shui soaks his feet and wipes the acupoints with ginger.

Boil Jiang Shui and soak your feet while adding water until you sweat. The longer the better. It is estimated that it will take more than 30 minutes to sweat. Rub the "Yongquan" on the soles of your feet and the "Dazhui" on your back with ginger. These two methods are widely spread among the people and can be tried.

I hope these methods can help everyone.
