Can you pour cool water into the baby's buttocks for high fever?

Patient's question:

Lately, my boss has said that I'm not in good spirits, which has affected my work performance. Actually, I didn't mean to, either. I often can't sleep at night and sometimes feel anxious and uncomfortable. If it gets worse, I'm worried it will affect my health and work. Can you pour cold water into the buttocks for a high fever?

Doctor's answer:

Weight is accurate, but it is preferable to use physical cooling methods as much as possible unless it is a persistent high fever that requires... rectal suppositories. However, rectal suppositories are only considered in special circumstances such as severe vomiting or when a child refuses medication. There are many causes of respiratory diseases in children. If a child is confirmed to have a respiratory system issue, parents need to cooperate with the doctor to start treatment immediately, assist with gastrointestinal decompression, and develop good hygiene habits. The child should have a balanced diet and avoid stimulating and cold foods.
