Patient's question:
My mom hasn't been able to cook recently and often says she feels dizzy and has a headache. The key is that I don't know what's wrong, but she just seems to be in bad spirits. I was wondering if taking fever-reducing medicine could cause a body temperature of 35.8°C to have an impact on health.Doctor's answer:
It is recommended to use antipyretic drugs correctly. If the body temperature is below 38 degrees Celsius, it is best not to use fever-reducing drugs. Physical cooling methods can be used instead. The specific method is: use alcohol or warm water to wipe the patient's forehead, torso, palm of the limbs, and other parts to increase heat dissipation, thereby achieving the effect of lowering body temperature. This is correct. Low body temperature will definitely have an impact, and it is recommended to go to the hospital in time for warming treatment.
