Patient's question:
These days, my boss said my spirits aren't good, affecting my work performance. Actually, I didn't mean to, I always can't sleep at night, sometimes feel anxious and uncomfortable. If it gets serious, I'm worried it will affect my health and work. Please ask, does having a fever of 39 degrees and using air conditioning have an impact?Doctor's answer:
It's best not to blow it up. Generally, if the temperature is below 38.5℃, it's better to use physical cooling methods, such as drinking more water, applying warm water with alcohol for bathing, etc. All fever-reducing drugs, such as paracetamol and compound aspirin, contain caffeine, phenacetin, and other ingredients, which have significant side effects. The nervous system inhibition mechanism of infants and young children is not yet fully developed. High fever can easily trigger convulsions when using these drugs. It can also cause collapse due to excessive sweating and even jaundice due to the accumulation of free bilirubin in the blood. At the same time, it can also damage the digestive system and liver and kidney function. If you must use fever-reducing drugs, please use them under the guidance of a doctor.
