Treatment of children's fever 1 1 first aid measures
(1) You can apply a cold and wet towel, so you can apply a dry towel to your head and neck with an impermeable plastic bag filled with ice, or to your armpits and groin, which is more effective.
(2) Dilute 75% alcohol with water twice, and wipe the head, neck, armpit, chest, back and limbs with a small towel. If the child's limbs are cold or have "goose skin" after wiping, wipe them with warm water slightly lower than the skin temperature until they turn red and warm.
(3) Take antipyretics when doing physical cooling, and take sedatives when there is a history of high fever spasm. If it's far from the hospital and the traffic is inconvenient, it's best not to go to the hospital in case of high fever. You can do the above emergency treatment at home first.
2. Cooling method
(1) traditional physical cooling method
Put the child in a quiet, cool and ventilated place. Apply a cold towel or cold water bag to the forehead, armpit and groin, or put an ice bag wrapped in cloth on your head or put it on the above parts.
You can also use cold water (28 ~ 30 degrees Celsius) or alcohol (30 ~ 50%) to rub the bath on the limbs, trunk sides and back. If the child's skin is pale or cold when taking a bath, he should stop immediately. Cold physiological saline (30 ~ 32 degrees Celsius) can also be used for enema, which is more suitable for those who suspect toxic fungi. It can not only reduce the temperature, but also facilitate taking stool samples for inspection.
(2) Drug cooling method
For immature babies, small babies and weak babies, antipyretics are generally not used to cool down; Children aged 0 ~ 23 months can take Xiaoer Baifubai (antipyretic oral) drops, and children aged 2 ~ 12 can take Xiaoer Baifubai (antipyretic) solution or chewable tablets once every 4 ~ 6 hours. The advantage of this antipyretic is that it is absorbed quickly after oral administration and takes effect in 30 minutes. There is no stimulation of traditional antipyretic and analgesic drugs on gastrointestinal tract, which reduces the influence on the function of white blood cells and platelets.

At (1) high fever, water loss increases and appetite decreases, so it is necessary to replenish water and electrolytes in time.
(2) Chlorpromazine and promethazine can be used as appropriate for fidgety, recurrent convulsions or ineffective general cooling measures.
4, according to the cause of treatment.
For high fever caused by infection, effective antibiotics should be selected according to the condition. Local infection should be removed in time. High fever caused by non-infectious diseases should also be treated according to different causes.
The treatment method of children's fever 2 What should children do if they have a fever and have a fever again and again?
1, non-infectious fever. It is not caused by various infectious diseases, but by various inflammations. , leading to confusion in the central system of thermoregulation, or due to various reasons, the body produces more heat and emits less heat, leading to an increase in body temperature, which is different from normal body temperature.
2. Central fever. This is also one of the reasons why children have repeated fevers. The reason is that the pathological changes of central nervous system function lead to the disorder of thermoregulation center, which leads to fever. According to professionals, the baby's nervous system has not been fully developed, and it is more prone to a high fever or a sharp rise in body temperature after a fever.
Brain diseases are likely to be serious cases when accompanied by high fever. Most children are caused by brain inflammation and urinary system or lung infection. In addition, children with unexplained moderate body temperature rise and unable to identify the source of infection or the cause of infection in a short time should not be identified as central fever casually.
The child's fever has gone back and burned again. What should I do again and again?
1, warm water bath. Take off your clothes and wipe your body with a warm towel. The center of gravity is forehead, neck, armpit, limbs and groin. Try to use water with moderate temperature in the bath, and it is advisable that the skin on the inner side of parents' wrists is not hot. The total scrubbing time should be about 13 minutes as far as possible, and it can be scrubbed continuously until the baby's temperature drops to 38 degrees Celsius. This can stretch the blood vessels of the skin, release heat, and absorb body heat when water vapor evaporates from the body surface.
2. Keep the room temperature. The indoor temperature can be kept at about 25-27 degrees Celsius. If there is air conditioning in the room, children can be properly placed in the air-conditioned room. If there is no air conditioning, you can use an electric fan to blow around and gradually lower your child's body temperature.
What are the first aid methods for children with fever?
First, reduce the fever in time.
Every family should have a thermometer and antipyretic in case of emergency. Children with fever should take their temperature every 1-2 hours. Febrile drugs should not be used when children's body temperature is below 38.5℃; When the body temperature exceeds 38.5℃, physical therapy such as antipyretic paste or ice compress can be used to cool down, and children's antipyretic tablets can also be taken in moderation; When the temperature exceeds 39℃, you should stay in bed absolutely, open your clothes or loosen them to expose your skin, put an ice pack or a cold wet towel on your head, and go to the hospital as soon as possible.
When febrile convulsion occurs, the child's eyes are staring or jumping up, he loses consciousness, has no response, his lips, face and body are blue, and his limbs are twitching. Parents should immediately press the "Renzhong" point (the middle point of nasolabial groove) of the child, and the strong stimulation lasts for 1-3 minutes until the child cries, and then use the above methods to quickly cool down, and at the same time, they should go to the hospital immediately.
Second, seek medical attention in time.
Babies under six months have a high fever and generally do not take antipyretics or take antipyretics. The best way to cool down is to take a warm bath, that is, a hot bath. After emergency treatment, whether the fever has gone down or not, you should take your child to the hospital for treatment. After being treated in the hospital, when they return home, mothers can take some simple measures to make their children feel better. Drinking more water will help them sweat and dissipate heat, and also lower their body temperature and replenish the water lost by their children.
Drinking water is not limited to boiled water. Children can drink some fruit juice and his or her favorite drinks to supplement water and vitamins, or drink more soup. When children are sick and have no appetite, they can eat some cakes and tofu.
Third, pay attention to heat preservation
Insulation is not as warm as possible. When you have a fever, remember not to wear too many clothes and cover your child with a thick quilt. This traditional method of "covering sweat" is not conducive to heat dissipation and fever reduction. As long as children wear more clothes than normal adults, for example, adults wear short sleeves, children wear long sleeves, adults wear a long skirt and children wear two. Take a hot bath. Some mothers worry that bathing their children during their fever will aggravate their symptoms.
You will sweat a lot after you have a fever. If you don't keep it clean, it is easy to cause other germs to infect you, so it is necessary to take a bath, but warm water should be used, and the water temperature is 38-39℃. Giving your child a warm bath or a tub bath can dilate blood vessels in your child's skin and increase heat dissipation. After taking a bath, wrap the child with a big towel to avoid catching cold.
As the saying goes, ignorance is incompetence. If mothers can't master some first aid methods for children with fever, they will be at a loss when their children have a cold and fever because of their ignorance. Therefore, common sense of treatment and prevention of some diseases is very important for mother. Mothers can rely on the knowledge they have learned to help their babies recover and be healthy better.
