The health condition of the baby needs constant attention from the mother. If the mother is a little careless, it may pose a threat to the baby's health. Some babies may frequently experience health problems, such as fever and diarrhea, which are common experiences for most babies. What should be done if a baby has a fever and diarrhea?
1. Dietary regulation
When a baby has a fever and diarrhea, don't panic. As long as the diarrhea is not very severe and the fever is high, the mother can regulate the baby through diet. Eating apple puree can help babies recover their digestive system. You can also feed your baby some steamed oranges to supplement vitamins and improve their body's ability to resist viruses, thereby reducing fever.
2. Physical cooling
When a baby has diarrhea and a fever occurs, it may be due to inflammation in the intestines, which requires a recovery process. At this time, the mother can only cool down the baby. If the baby's fever does not exceed 38 degrees, a cold towel can be used to apply cold compress to the baby, such as the forehead, hands and feet. When necessary, antipyretic patches can be used for babies to effectively cool down.
3. Drug therapy
If the baby's condition cannot recover for a long time, the mother should not make efforts in diet anymore, but actively give the baby medication for treatment. It is best to take the baby for medical treatment and use medication suitable for the baby's condition after diagnosis by the doctor, in order to ensure effectiveness.
