Fever children must not “cover”, some parents think that the child covered with sweat, the body temperature can be reduced, in fact, the more “cover” the higher the body temperature. Therefore, the child has a fever, the first time to undo the child’s clothes to dissipate heat. Secondly, give the child more water to drink, so as not to cause dehydration due to high fever. At the same time, physical cooling methods can be used – warm water bath. The water temperature should be slightly higher than the body temperature, mainly scrubbing the child’s palms, feet, armpits, groin and other places, but the time should not be long, in order to prevent re-exposure to cold. In fact, fever is not a separate disease, but a common clinical symptom, and there are many cases in which fever is an important signal indicating the development of a disease process. When the child’s body temperature exceeds 38.5 ° C and (or) the emergence of obvious discomfort, it is necessary to take medication to reduce fever, this kind of medicine commonly used ibuprofen, acetaminophen, etc..
