summary

My baby often has a fever. I give him antipyretic every time. Yesterday, the baby had a fever again. I went to the pediatrics department to have a look. The doctor said that I gave the baby blind medication, which would do great harm to the baby's body. The doctor said that if the baby's temperature is more than 37, don't use antipyretic, can give the baby drink more water, pay attention not to catch cold. According to the doctor's guidance, the baby's temperature can really drop a lot. Now my baby is very healthy and lively. So the mother must not give the baby medication, the following is my experience of taking care of the baby.

How does child have a fever at night to return a responsibility?

First: when children have fever symptoms in the middle of the night, the first step is to test their temperature with a thermometer to see the degree of fever, and then take countermeasures. If below 38.5 degrees, when the child is in a good state of mind, you can give him some water, and then rub his chest and back with the palm of his hand to make him sweat.

Second: you can also use the physical cooling method, that is to use a hot towel to wipe the neck, armpit, palm, foot and other places to help the baby cool down, warm water is also a better way to cool down, but in the middle of the night, it is not convenient for the child to wipe himself. In addition to hot towel wipe, you can also use a cold towel to cold compress the child's head, which can prevent the baby's brain from burning when he has a fever.

Third: the family should reserve some children's antipyretic drugs. If the child's fever exceeds 38.5 degrees in the middle of the night, they should take some antipyretic drugs. They should immediately wake up the child to take medicine for the child, and then assist in the above-mentioned physical cooling method to help the child cool down

matters needing attention

At the same time, when the fever reaches 38.5 degrees, the baby still does not get rid of the fever. When the baby is in a bad mental state, he should go to the hospital immediately, so as not to delay the baby's illness, so as not to cause other complications.
