Children with high fever can be given physical cooling treatment, through the use of cold towels to wipe the body, which is conducive to lowering the body temperature, and also need to be given medication to lower the temperature.
Physical cooling can be used as an auxiliary method for high fever, and can help reduce fever by using cold towels to wipe the armpits, neck, thigh roots and other large blood vessels. However, if the temperature exceeds 38.5 degrees, ibuprofen, acetaminophen and other medications need to be given on top of the physical cooling, as prescribed by the doctor.
In some cases, fever is not a bad thing for children, it helps to strengthen the immune function, and it is a self-protection reaction to remove pathogens through their own immunity. For infections and other diseases that cause high fevers, it is necessary to cooperate with the doctor to choose the right treatment.
There are many reasons for children to have a high fever, and they should consult a doctor in time to clarify the cause of the fever and cooperate with the doctor to carry out standardized treatment to reduce the adverse effects of the disease.
