If a child has a fever, the mother will be very anxious. If a one year old child repeatedly has a fever, they may cry incessantly, which will make parents very anxious. A one year old child has recurrent fever and immediate measures need to be taken to improve it. So, what should be done if a one year old child has recurrent fever?
A one year old child with recurrent fever may have some kind of infection, whether it is bacterial or viral. It is best to go to the hospital for a blood test. If the blood test results indicate the presence of viral infection, timely antiviral treatment is needed.
If the body temperature is below 38.5 degrees, physical fever reduction can be chosen. Physical fever reduction can be achieved by wiping the forehead, armpits, or groin with warm water, or by applying antipyretic patches or cold towels to the forehead.
If a child's fever has exceeded 38.5 degrees, it is necessary to take some antipyretic drugs to reduce the fever. To use antipyretic drugs for fever reduction, it is necessary to go to the hospital to find a doctor to prescribe medication. Do not use drugs indiscriminately, otherwise it may bring many side effects to the child and may also cause many injuries.
If it is a bacterial infection, antibiotic treatment is needed. If the fever is severe, timely intravenous infusion of antibiotics is necessary for treatment.
