A three-year-old child is still very young and has poor physical resistance. Sometimes when they experience some illness or discomfort, they will cry and make their parents take it seriously. If the child has a fever, their body temperature will be abnormal. Normal people's body temperature will remain within a certain range. Therefore, parents can check whether their child has a fever by taking a temperature. So, what is the normal temperature for a three-year-old child?
A three-year-old child's body temperature of 36-37 degrees is considered normal, but there is a range of temperature fluctuations. In different situations, the child's body temperature may also have different changes. For example, during sleep, the body temperature may be lower, while during breastfeeding or crying, the body temperature may be relatively higher. After exercise, the body temperature may also be slightly higher. As long as it is within the normal range and the fluctuation is not very large, there is no need to worry too much.
Children's ability to regulate body temperature is not yet fully developed, making them susceptible to the influence of environmental temperature, which can cause fluctuations in body temperature. In summer, parents should not wrap their children too much, as this can prevent the release of heat and increase body temperature. Keeping the child in a cool place can help restore normal body temperature.
If a three-year-old child has a fever, it is necessary to cool down in a timely manner. If the fever is not severe, physical cooling can usually be used, such as applying a cool towel to the child's forehead, which can achieve the effect of cooling down.
