Many people believe that a child's fever is a sign of being tall, but this statement is not scientific. The cold and fever that usually occur in babies can basically heal on their own through careful care. But if the fever persists, the situation is more serious. So, what should we do if a 2-year-old baby has a persistent fever?
Method 1: The cause should be identified. A two-year-old baby experiences persistent fever, which is relatively severe. Common causes of persistent and recurrent fever include childhood pneumonia, bronchitis, viral colds, etc. Therefore, when persistent fever occurs, it is necessary to seek medical examination to determine the cause, and then take targeted treatment measures, which is a better approach.
Method 2: Combining physical cooling. Persistent fever has a long course and can cause significant harm to the baby's body. Therefore, in addition to necessary intervention and treatment, physical cooling measures should also be taken. Warm water baths or warm towels can be used to wipe the back of the baby's neck, forehead, armpits, palms, and soles to promote surface heat dissipation and avoid high body temperature.
Method 3: Supplement water appropriately. Persistent fever, especially high fever, can cause excessive loss of water in the body. Timely replenishment of water for the body is also an auxiliary measure for the treatment of persistent fever. Therefore, it is necessary to increase the baby's water intake daily to avoid dehydration caused by fever.
