Patient's question:
The son is two and a half years old. He has had repeated high fever for nearly a week. He has also gone to the hospital, but it keeps coming and going. So, how should high fever in children be handled?Doctor's answer:
First, parents must stock up on fever patches. Secondly, you can choose to wipe the nest, leg, palm, and sole of the foot with alcohol, but since children's skin is delicate, do not wipe too frequently to avoid alcohol poisoning. You can also choose to give the child a warm bath, with the water temperature not too high, controlled around 37 degrees Celsius, and the bathing time should not be too long, lasting about fifteen minutes. After bathing, quickly dry the child's body. Additionally, you can take some compound medicine, which can reduce fever quickly. It is best to add some Vitamin C and Mulberry leaves tablets for better effect. Also, pay attention to giving the child more fluids and consuming liquid diets.
