What to do when fever is caused by food accumulation

  Fever caused by food accumulation is mostly seen in pediatric conditions.

Fever caused by food accumulation is first treated symptomatically. The treatment of fever should be based on the degree of temperature increase. Fever below 38.5 degrees can first be reduced by physical cooling. You can make an ice pillow for your child and put it behind the pillow; you can also use warm water to wipe the whole body, especially the head, armpits, limbs and other parts to promote heat dissipation, or take a warm bath; in addition, you can also choose to soak the feet, while soaking the feet, while rubbing the soles of the feet to promote blood circulation and relieve the discomfort caused by fever. Fever higher than 38.5 degrees should be cooled by antipyretic drugs. Commonly used antipyretic oral drugs include compound zinc cloth granules, acetaminophen suspension, ibuprofen suspension, etc.; you can also use antipyretic patches and antipyretic suppositories to cool down the fever.  In addition to symptomatic fever reduction, the underlying problem of food accumulation needs to be addressed. Parents can try to do abdominal massage, as well as massage at the heel of the palm and the tianshu point of the navel, which can promote gastrointestinal digestion. At the same time, attention should be paid to dieting, preferably a liquid diet. If necessary, take some medications to promote digestion, such as Xiaoerzhi granules, Feier pills, Baohe pills, etc.
