“Baby has a fever, hurry up and bring it down!” Even though baby fever is very common, every time you face a baby fever, there is still worry in the heart of a parent, and you still hope that your baby’s temperature will return to normal soon. But sometimes, the starting point is good, but the method may not be appropriate. 1, with the quilt cover sweat easy dehydration This is the generation of the fever method, however, now or do not use, because the baby fever body temperature is high, give him through more clothes or cover thick quilt, but not conducive to the skin heat dissipation, cooling, the more you cover the higher the temperature may be, if the baby sweats too much, but also prone to cause the baby dehydration, induced febrile convulsions. Baby fever should be handled properly 2, with ice packs or cold water rubbing the body can not dissipate fever, people’s skin pores are contracted, the body heat is not easy to disseminate. If the environmental temperature is high, the pores of the skin will expand, the body’s heat can be emitted through the skin. If you apply cold packs or rub your body with cold water, the blood vessels in the skin will contract, and the skin will be like a brick wall, so the heat cannot be emitted. Skin after cold compresses, the body surface temperature is indeed reduced, but if this time to measure the anal temperature or oral temperature will find that, because the body’s heat can not be dispersed, the baby’s body temperature is higher, this situation will make the baby more uncomfortable. 3, alcohol wipe stimulation, alcohol poisoning Alcohol wipe is also commonly used before the fever method, with diluted alcohol wipe the skin, so that the skin capillary expansion, accelerate the evaporation of water, through the volatile effect of alcohol to take away the heat of the surface of the body, so that the body temperature is reduced. But with alcohol wipe may cause the baby’s skin rapid diastole and contraction, the baby’s stimulation is relatively large, and, if the alcohol is not diluted enough, there may be absorbed into the body through the baby’s tender skin, resulting in the baby’s alcohol poisoning, so now the doctor does not advocate parents to give the baby this method to lower the temperature. 4, light medicine, do not drink water fever effect is not good Temperature more than 38.5 ℃ to give the baby to eat antipyretic medicine, but some parents say that the effect of antipyretic medicine is not good, the fever does not come down. This is related to the baby drink a lot of water. It is important to know that in order for heat to be removed from the body, there needs to be a carrier, which is water, that is to say, the heat will be brought out through sweating or urination. The effectiveness of fever reduction is greatly related to the adequacy of hydration. Fever was the body’s water consumption, if the baby does not drink water, even after taking antipyretics, antipyretic effect is not good. 5, high fever does not eat antipyretics consume energy, increase the baby’s pain Some mothers are reluctant to give their babies medication, worried about the side effects of medicine, so the baby burned to 38.5 ℃ or more than 39 ℃ also do not give the baby to eat antipyretics. This practice is also not right. The baby’s temperature exceeds 38.5 ℃, will consume energy, so that the baby’s spirit is not strong, very difficult, at this time should be given to take antipyretic medicine to cool down the temperature, to reduce the baby’s pain, and at the same time, let the baby to save energy to deal with the disease. Acetaminophen and ibuprofen are very safe antipyretics, which can be given to the baby in accordance with the baby’s weight at the recommended dose. 6, a fever on the infusion, gastrointestinal dysfunction, the immune system is damaged Many parents think that the infusion of fever fast, hope that this method to let the baby quickly fever. In fact, now children’s oral antipyretics usually take 30 minutes after the effect, and oral antipyretics side effects, safer. Infusion more often, not only will lead to the baby’s appetite, gastrointestinal dysfunction, but also make the baby’s immune system is damaged, on his long-term health will also have an impact.
