Causes and countermeasures of children's fever

The normal temperature of the child is between 36: 9℃ and 37: 5℃. When the body temperature exceeds this range above 65438 0℃, it may be fever. Fever is one of the symptoms of many diseases. There are many reasons for children's fever, which are mainly divided into the following three categories.

intrinsic factor

The internal causes of children's fever include illness, cold, tracheitis and laryngitis. These diseases can cause children's body temperature to rise and cause fever.

external cause

The external causes of children's fever include weather, clothes, drinking water and air. Children's body temperature is easily affected by the external environment, such as too much clothing, insufficient drinking water, poor indoor air circulation, etc., which may lead to children's fever.

Other factors

Other factors of children's fever include vaccination reactions, including measles, cholera, diphtheria, cough, tetanus and other vaccine reactions. These reactions may lead to fever in children.

Replenish more water

When a child has a fever, remember to add more water to help sweat and prevent dehydration. Water has the function of regulating temperature, which can help lower body temperature and replenish water lost in the body.

Febrile water or suppository

If the baby's central temperature (anal temperature or ear temperature) exceeds 38.5℃, it is appropriate to use warm water or suppository. But the use of drugs should be in accordance with the doctor's advice, not self-medication.
