(1) Drink more warm water, green vegetable water and fruit juice. Drink plenty of water and replenish body fluids for your baby. This is the most basic way to cool down, and it is very effective and practical, suitable for all babies with fever. Don't give the baby cold water, because the baby often has gastrointestinal symptoms and cough when he has a fever. Drinking cold water will aggravate these accompanying symptoms, so give your baby warm water.

The water temperature is 32℃-34℃, and the wiping time is longer than 10 minute. The key parts of wiping are places with wrinkles on the skin, such as neck, armpit, elbow and groin.

(3) Warm water bath: the water temperature is about 3℃-4℃ lower than the body temperature of the sick child, and each time is 5- 10 minute. Many parents think that babies can't take a bath if they have a fever. In fact, on the contrary, giving your baby a warm bath can help him cool down. Warm bath is suitable for all babies with fever.

(4) Low greenhouse method: Put the sick children in an environment with room temperature around 24℃, so that the body temperature will drop slowly. In order to keep the skin in contact with the outside air and cool down, it is necessary to wear less clothes. If conditions permit, air conditioning can be used to lower the room temperature. This method is suitable for babies under 1 month, especially in summer. As long as the baby's clothes are open and placed in a cool place, his body temperature will gradually drop. If the baby has a fever accompanied by chills and chills, you can't use the low greenhouse method.

(5) Antipyretic patch: Antipyretic patch is a new product in recent years and is very popular. In fact, the antipyretic effect is average, unlike advertising to exaggerate the effect.

Some experts believe that ice compress does more harm than good, because ice compress may cause the baby's skin capillaries to contract, hinder heat dissipation, and the body temperature will be higher, especially with chills and chills. Ice compress is not allowed.

2. Drug therapy

If the baby's axillary temperature exceeds 38.2 degrees or is obviously inappropriate because of fever after physical cooling treatment, then drugs should be used to reduce the fever. It is recommended to use ibuprofen (such as Merrill Lynch) or acetaminophen (such as Tylenol), which are most widely used in pediatrics. Both of them are safe and effective antipyretic ingredients, which can help the baby to reduce fever quickly. In addition, due to the high proportion of water in the baby's body, dehydration is prone to occur when there is a fever. Therefore, parents must let their babies drink more boiled water.

3, daily care

Parents should take their children to public places less. Children's food should be strictly controlled, and tableware and toys should be disinfected frequently. After the weather turns cold, you should be careful when eating raw and cold food, and it is advisable to eat fruit half an hour after meals. At the same time, we should pay attention to keep warm, avoid catching cold and causing respiratory and digestive tract diseases, and reduce the body's resistance.

4. Diet therapy

In order to reduce the burden of digestive tract, the diet should be mainly starchy foods, such as millet porridge, rice porridge and batter. After diarrhea stops, children can be supplemented with nutrients lost due to diarrhea. For children with poor constitution, massage, massage and other physical therapy methods can also relieve diarrhea symptoms, increase the body's tolerance and shorten the course of disease.

How does 3-year-old baby have a fever?

The baby's body temperature is normal at 36.2℃-37.5℃, low fever means that the body temperature fluctuates around 38℃, and high fever means that the body temperature is above 39℃. If it exceeds 4 1℃, it is ultra-high fever. A fever lasting more than two weeks is a long-term fever. What should the baby do if he has a fever? During the baby's fever, pay more attention to observe the baby's mental state and pay attention to its temperature changes. Generally speaking, the baby's fever is lower than 38.5℃, so physical cooling can be used, and drugs cannot be abused; If the baby's fever is higher than 38.5℃, take the baby to see a doctor in time and take antipyretics under the guidance of the doctor. This paper introduces the methods of home care for infants with fever:

① Cold compress method: This method is simple and easy. Apply a cold towel to your forehead, soak the towel in cold water when it gets hot, and then reapply it. It is better to apply a cold water bag or an ice pack than to apply a cold towel to your forehead.

2 whole body warm water bath or bath: unbutton the baby's clothes and wipe the whole body with warm water towel or bath, which can dilate the baby's skin blood vessels and release the gas in the body; In addition, when water vapor evaporates from the body surface, it will also absorb body heat. Take a bath for about 10 ~ 15 minutes every 4 ~ 6 hours.

③ Use cold water pillow: When the anal temperature is above 38℃, you can use cold water pillow to dissipate heat locally at a lower temperature. Now the soft cold water pillow on the market is very convenient, cold and not too cold, suitable for older children and children. However, it is not recommended for infants under 6 months, because infants are not easy to turn over, which may lead to frostbite or hypothermia due to local supercooling.

2, drink plenty of water: it helps to sweat. In addition, water also has the effect of regulating temperature, which can lower body temperature and replenish water lost in the body.

3. The diet is mainly liquid, nutritious, light and digestible, such as vegetable porridge and noodle soup.

4, appropriate increase or decrease in clothing: if the baby's limbs are cold and shivering, it means that you need to keep warm and cover the blanket; If the limbs, hands and feet are hot and sweating all over, it means that heat needs to be dissipated and you can wear less clothes.

5. Keep the indoor temperature suitable and the air circulating, minimize the visits of relatives and friends, prevent cross-infection and help the baby rest.

What if the child has a fever in the middle of the night?

When a child has a fever in the middle of the night, parents often appear panicked. In fact, because the child's physical function is not fully developed, fever is a normal disease, and parents can take the following three measures to deal with it.

1, take the temperature. Parents should not panic if their children have a fever at night. First of all, the first thing to do is to take the child's temperature with a thermometer to see the degree of the child's fever, and then take countermeasures.

2. Physical cooling. When the child's body temperature is lower than 38.5 degrees, physical cooling can be used to help the baby cool down.

(1) Drink more warm water, green vegetable water and fruit juice. Drink plenty of water and replenish body fluids for your baby. This is the most basic way to cool down, and it is very effective and practical, suitable for all babies with fever. Don't give your baby cold water, drink warm water, because your baby often has gastrointestinal symptoms and cough when he has a fever. Drinking cold water will aggravate these accompanying symptoms.

(2) Warm water bath, that is, wiping the whole body with a warm towel. This is a good way to cool down, and it is also suitable for all babies with fever. The water temperature is 32-34 degrees, and the wiping time is more than 10 minute. The key parts of wiping are places with wrinkles on the skin, such as neck, armpit, elbow and groin.

(3) Warm water bath: the water temperature is about 3-4℃ lower than the body temperature of the sick child, and it takes 5- 10 minutes each time. Many parents think that babies can't take a bath if they have a fever. In fact, on the contrary, giving your baby a warm bath can help him cool down. Warm bath is suitable for all babies with fever.

(4) Low greenhouse method: Put the sick children in an environment with room temperature around 26℃, so that the body temperature will drop slowly. In order to keep the skin in contact with the outside air and cool down, it is necessary to wear less clothes. If conditions permit, air conditioning can be used to lower the room temperature. This method is suitable for babies under 1 month, especially in summer. As long as the baby's clothes are open and placed in a cool place, his body temperature will gradually drop. If the baby has a fever accompanied by chills and chills, you can't use the low greenhouse method.

(5) Antipyretic patch: Antipyretic patch is a new product in recent years and is very popular. In fact, the antipyretic effect is average, unlike advertising to exaggerate the effect. Sticking a sticker on the baby's forehead will make the baby's head more comfortable and the parents' heart more comfortable. It should be beneficial and harmless.

(6) Ice compress: A small amount of ice compress can be used appropriately, and ice or cold compress can be applied to the baby's head or large blood vessels. However, we must pay attention to a layer of cloth outside the ice pack to prevent the baby's skin from being frostbitten locally. It is not suitable for babies within 6 months. The advantages and disadvantages of this method are still controversial. It is generally believed that ice compress does more harm than good, because ice compress may cause the baby's skin capillaries to contract, hinder heat dissipation, and the body temperature will be higher, especially with chills and chills. Ice compress is not allowed.

(7) Alcohol bath: This method has been abandoned. Baby's skin is very thin, and alcohol is very permeable, which may be absorbed into the blood through the skin. Moreover, rubbing with alcohol will stimulate the skin, cause capillary contraction, hinder heat dissipation, and the body temperature will be higher.

3. Take antipyretics under the guidance of a doctor. At home, we should prepare some antipyretics suitable for children and with high clinical safety. If the baby's temperature still exceeds 38.5℃ after physical cooling treatment, drugs should be used to reduce the fever. If the child still doesn't have a fever after taking antipyretics and his mental state is not good, he should go to the hospital immediately to avoid delaying the baby's illness and causing other complications.

What should children do if they have repeated fevers?

It is very common for children to have a fever, especially in winter. The temperature difference between day and night is large, and the children's adaptability to the external environment is poor, and the body's immune system is not fully developed. Slight discomfort can easily lead to fever symptoms, or the body temperature rises rapidly after taking medicine to reduce fever. It would be even worse if the flu broke out. Parents should handle it calmly, and always put antipyretic drugs at home or in the bag for emergencies. However, there are many kinds of antipyretics, and not all of them can be prepared. Antipyretic drugs for children must be suitable for their organ physiological functions and drug metabolism characteristics. Therefore, it is suggested to keep professional antipyretic drugs for children, such as ibuprofen (such as Merrill Lynch) or acetaminophen (such as Tylenol), both of which are safe, effective and rapid antipyretic drugs recommended by the World Health Organization.

The main causes of fever are: the invasion of bacteria and viruses, causing respiratory and gastrointestinal infections, leading to fever. In particular, parents should be reminded that if the child's fever does not improve for more than three days, or if the baby has a high fever or convulsions, he should seek medical treatment in time so as to find out the cause and treat the symptoms.

Because the child's adaptability to the external environment is poor, the body's immune system is not fully developed, and it is easy to cause fever symptoms with a little discomfort, or the body temperature rises rapidly after taking medicine to reduce fever. Especially in the hot summer, if parents use air conditioning improperly or the baby drinks less water and doesn't adapt to the hot weather, it will cause repeated fever.

Why does the baby catch a cold and have a fever repeatedly? What should the baby do if he has a fever?

The baby has a fever and may have no appetite for several days. Looking at the baby's haggard little face, the mother was in a hurry. How to adjust the baby's diet and let the baby recover as soon as possible?

1, baby's fever will lead to loss of appetite.

When the baby has a fever, the body is the "enemy" being invaded by the fierce warrior war. This process needs a lot of energy to support. Because focusing on fighting the "enemy" will affect the absorption of energy by other parts of the body, leading to a decrease in gastric juice secretion and poor appetite.

2, baby fever diet principle: drink plenty of water, high energy, easy to digest.

When the baby has a fever, the metabolism will accelerate and the consumption of water and nutrition will increase. At this time, you should add more water to your baby and choose high-energy, digestible and water-rich foods.

First of all, drink more boiled water, and at the same time choose soft and digestible foods, such as milk, rice soup, broth with less oil, fresh juice and so on. To provide enough water, vitamins and energy. It is recommended to eat less and eat more.

/kloc-For babies under 0/year old, the general diet is mainly milk. If you are breastfeeding exclusively, you must stick to it. Because the water content of breast milk reaches 87%, it can be replenished. If the baby is artificially fed, the proportion of water can be reasonably increased when washing milk, which not only supplements water, but also is more conducive to digestion and absorption.

3. The principle of transitional diet after the baby has a fever: appropriately increase the high-quality protein, and it is not advisable to supplement too much.

After the baby's body temperature drops, the body is recovering, but the digestion and absorption function has not completely returned to normal. It is not advisable to eat too much and supplement too much nutrition, otherwise it will increase the burden on the digestive tract and affect the nutrition absorption and body recovery.

At this stage, it is recommended to eat less and eat more meals. You can choose soft, rotten, digestible, chewy foods with little crude fiber, such as minced meat porridge, shredded vegetable porridge, vermicelli soup, wonton, bread, steamed egg soup and so on. , is conducive to the baby's intake of high-quality protein, easy to recover.

Babies with poor appetite when they have a fever should pay special attention. Don't make him eat. He should obey the child's wishes and eat when he is hungry, but he should pay attention to replenish enough water in time.

children have a fever

For the causes of fever, the common medical classification is infectious fever and non-infectious fever.

Infectious fever refers to infected viruses, bacteria or other mycoplasma and pathogens. It invades the baby's body, and the baby's body resists. This is a defensive reaction, and then there is fever. The common site of virus and bacterial infection is nasopharynx. The cold, fever, inflammation, otitis media and bronchitis mentioned just now are the gateway to our communication with the outside world, the first line of defense and the most common infections. However, viral and bacterial infections will not only infect our throat and trachea, but also further develop into pneumonia and meningitis, which belongs to infectious fever.

Diseases that cause non-infectious fever include connective tissue degeneration, rheumatic fever, lupus erythematosus and so on. However, this fever is usually not sudden, it stops after a while, or it continues to burn for a while, and this fever is relatively long-term. In addition, there are dehydration fever, medicine fever and summer fever. Dehydration fever, that is, children sweat more in summer and drink less water, which is easy to dehydrate. Drug fever is fever caused by reaction with drugs. There is also summer heat. There are also tumors, leukemia and even craniocerebral trauma. Fever caused by the inability to regulate the center is non-infectious. Non-infection is not caused by viruses, bacteria and other pathogens. We call it noninfectious fever.

Fever suppository

If you have a fever, you can use an antipyretic suppository. How much can I use for antipyretic suppository?

People's normal body temperature is mostly below 37℃, and fever is generally considered when the body temperature exceeds 37.5℃. The human body has its own protection mechanism, and the body temperature below 38.5℃ does not need special treatment, and cooling will be considered when it exceeds 38.5℃.

Generally, fever should be cooled by physical methods, such as drinking more water, rubbing with warm water and rubbing with alcohol. When the body temperature continues to rise above 39℃ after taking the above measures, you can consider using antipyretic suppository, and pay attention to the dosage when using it. Too much will lead to a lot of sweating, collapse and even shock, electrolyte disorder, which is not good for the body. Pay attention to control the degree of use.

Is 36.8 degrees a fever?

There is a normal range of human body temperature. If it exceeds, it is a fever. If the child is 36.8 degrees, is it a fever?

A child's temperature of 36.8 degrees is not a fever. Because fever is a common symptom in childhood, parents are particularly nervous and concerned about it. Generally speaking, a child's normal body temperature is 36-37℃. Of course, there are individual differences in body temperature. The daily fluctuation of body temperature is about 65438 0℃. For example, the normal value of some children is 36.2-37.2℃, which means 1℃ will fluctuate. Some children are higher, others are lower, with an average of 36-37℃.

Generally speaking, children above 37.4℃ have a fever, and they must be particularly anxious after a fever. The body temperature fluctuates around 65438 0℃ a day, which is slightly higher, and it is usually 37.2-37.3℃ after strenuous exercise or after meals.

Is 36.9 degrees a fever?

Some adults already feel dizzy and feverish at 36.9 degrees, so is 36.9 degrees an adult fever?

Adult, 36.9 degrees is not a fever. Normal people's body temperature is generally around 36 to 37 degrees Celsius, and adult's body temperature of 36.9 degrees Celsius belongs to the normal range. What we need to pay attention to is that the normal body temperature varies slightly among different individuals and often fluctuates slightly due to internal and external factors of the body.

Within 24 hours, the body temperature in the afternoon is slightly higher than that in the morning, and it can be slightly higher after strenuous exercise, labor or eating, but the general fluctuation range is not more than 65438 0 degrees Celsius. The body temperature of women before menstruation and during pregnancy is slightly higher than normal, and the body temperature of the elderly is relatively lower than that of young people because of their low metabolic rate. In addition, in a high temperature environment, the body temperature can be slightly raised. Generally, if the body temperature is greater than 373.3 degrees Celsius, you should consider having a fever. At this time, you need to go to the hospital in time to find out the cause of the fever.

37. Is1degree a fever?

For example, if the temperature under the armpit is measured by mercury thermometer, is 37. 1 degree under the armpit a fever?

Normal adults, if the temperature measured under the armpit is 37. 1℃, it is not a fever. Usually the temperature measured under the armpit is 36.0-37.3℃. The oral temperature is lower than the underarm temperature, usually 35.8-37.0℃. The temperature measured by anus is higher than that measured by armpit, and the normal temperature is usually 36.5-37.6℃, which is the normal temperature.

However, during ovulation, some women's body temperature is 0.3-0.5℃ higher than normal, that is, the underarm temperature is within the normal range, which is not considered as fever, but some elderly people have low basal body temperature and low basal metabolic rate, so the underarm temperature is above 37.0℃, which is considered as mild fever. If the patient is uncomfortable, it is recommended to drink more water, wear more clothes, cover the quilt, rest more and make adjustments.

Is 37.7 degrees a fever?

There is a standard for fever. Some children have a temperature of 37.7 degrees, so is 37.7 degrees a child's fever?

Strictly speaking, the body temperature measured in different parts is different, and the definition of fever is different. If you take the child's temperature under the armpit, the normal temperature under the armpit is 36℃-37℃. If you take your temperature under your armpit, 37.7℃ is a fever.

First of all, you can take physical cooling methods, such as taking a warm bath for your child, or wiping your child's palms, soles, armpits and thigh roots with a warm wet towel to cool down. Putting antipyretic stickers on children's foreheads can also cool down. In addition, you can also give your child plenty of water to cool down. If the child's body temperature is measured in the anus, the normal range of the body temperature measured in the anus is between 36.5℃ and 37.7℃. If you take the temperature measured in the anus, 37.7℃ is not a fever. Therefore, when measuring the body temperature of different parts for children, the definition of fever is different.
