When a child's high fever persists, it is a very urgent matter for parents, because during the fever period, the child's body consumes a lot of energy. If the nutritional supplement is not sufficient, the condition will become more serious. Therefore, it is important to find the cause of the high fever in a timely manner and handle it correctly. So, what is the disease of a child's repeated high fever that does not subside?
Repeated high fever in children may be caused by bacterial and viral infections. At this time, the child should be taken to the hospital for blood tests to further clarify. Furthermore, abnormal immune factors in children can also lead to long-term fever, so further examination of their immune system is necessary.
If the use of antipyretic drugs in children is incorrect, the body lacks sufficient water, or the child is not sensitive to antipyretic drugs, such situations can also occur. Many antipyretic drugs only temporarily relieve high fever, but cannot completely suppress it. Therefore, after taking antipyretic drugs, the body temperature will rise again. Only by controlling the infection can the fever be relieved.
For children with fever, parents can use ice packs or cold towels to deal with it, or use alcohol baths to lower the child's body temperature, such as wiping the palms, limbs, chest, and head, which can achieve a good cooling effect.
