Because babies have poor adaptability to the environment and their immune system has not fully developed, it is easy to cause symptoms such as fever. Some babies may also experience a rapid increase in body temperature after fever subsides. So what should I do if my baby has recurrent high fever?
1. Don't dress your baby too much, many parents have that traditional concept. It is believed that if a baby has a fever, they will feel very cold, so they should wear a lot of clothes, which is not conducive to the baby's rapid heat dissipation. So don't give your baby too many clothes to let him dissipate heat quickly.
2. You can soak the towel in cold water at around 20 degrees Celsius, wring it out, fold it up, and place it on the baby's forehead. This will help lower body temperature, but the towel should be replaced every three minutes or so. You can also give your baby a warm bath or wipe their body with warm water. Rub your baby's skin with warm water more often, which is beneficial for lowering body temperature. This mainly involves wiping your baby's head, palms, armpits, and limbs.
3. Parents can also prepare some ice cubes or a small amount of water and put them in an ice pack, but they don't need to fill it too full. Just half of it is enough, and then exhaust the excess air in the ice pack. Tighten the bag mouth to ensure no water leakage, and then place the ice pack on the baby's pillow to cool down. If the baby has severe recurrent fever, it is necessary to take the baby to the hospital for examination and diagnosis in a timely manner, and then receive treatment.
