How does fever feel cold to return a responsibility?
summary
Some parents found that when the baby has a fever, his hands and feet are often cold, so the patient's diet should be reasonable. Don't overeat, so worry about the child is frozen, quickly add clothes and quilts, but I don't know, this is not conducive to the baby heat. What's the matter with fever and cold? Let's go.
How does fever feel cold to return a responsibility?
First, the body's temperature is controlled by the temperature center of the hypothalamus. If there is inflammation in the body, the temperature center will jump up the temperature set point, in order to improve the immune ability and inhibit pathogenic bacteria. To reach a higher body temperature, the body needs muscles to vibrate to generate heat, while shrinking blood vessels on the body surface to reduce heat loss, so the child's hands and feet feel cool.
Second: many parents will use the method of "covering sweat" when their children have a fever, thinking that as long as the baby has a sweat, the fever can be reduced. Li Dongfang, deputy director of pediatrics at Sun Yat Sen Memorial Hospital of Sun Yat sen University, pointed out that this kind of practice is not allowed. Children with high fever tend to have poor limb circulation and feel cold hands and feet. Parents mistakenly think that children's cold hands and feet are not enough to wear, and then cover their children with thick clothes. In addition, children's sweat glands are underdeveloped and cover their sweat with fever. The more they cover their hands and feet, the hotter they are. It is easy to cause "cover heat syndrome" and induce febrile convulsions.
Third: when the baby has a fever, we must pay attention to monitor the baby's body temperature, and deal with the fever in different stages. In the rising period of body temperature, the baby with fever feels cold. At this time, it is not suitable to wipe the body with cold water. Drink more water and apply antipyretic paste or ice to the head. If the baby has cold hands and feet, keep them warm and improve the peripheral circulation; In the continuous high fever period, the baby feels very hot, can take ice on the head or warm water bath, drink plenty of water to urinate, sweat, warm water bath, etc; If the body temperature is over 38.5 degrees, you can take the safe antipyretic for children; In the antipyretic period, the baby sweating more, should pay attention to add water, timely change sweat wet underwear pants.
matters needing attention
1. Drink more water. If it's just an acute fever (less than 2 weeks), there is no other discomfort (such as severe cough, expectoration, headache, etc., which are often signals that the body can't handle by itself), and the mental state is also good. You can wait and see first and drink more water. However, early treatment is recommended. 2. Seek medical treatment as soon as possible, because there are many causes of fever, what is described above is only the conventional treatment methods for common fever. For those patients who are still suffering from persistent temperature or high fever or who have nausea, vomiting and other discomfort after conventional treatment, they should go to the hospital in time to find out the cause and prescribe the right medicine as soon as possible.
