Every child is very important to the family, and the healthy growth of children is highly valued by every parent. Especially during the growth process of children, parents will be extra careful, fearing that their children may experience symptoms of illness and fever that could affect their health. So, which part of the body is more accurate to touch when a child has a fever?
Generally speaking, when a child has a fever, parents can feel whether the baby is having a fever by touching their forehead, palm, or back of their neck. When most children have a fever, their forehead feels particularly hot to the touch, and mothers can clearly feel the change in their child's body temperature by touching it with their hands.
Under normal circumstances, when the lid appears particularly red on the face, particularly dry on the lips, and the child is also feeling lethargic or loss of appetite, mothers should pay attention to whether the child has a fever. Firstly, you can feel whether the temperature of several parts of the baby has significantly increased by touching them. When a child has a fever, their body loses water quickly, and their urine color may be particularly yellow.
If parents cannot accurately touch their child to determine if they have a fever, they can use an ear thermometer or thermometer to measure the child's exact temperature. And in response to the child's fever symptoms, relevant measures can be taken. You can first try to help the child physically cool down, especially in the hands and feet, to help the child's heat dissipate as soon as possible. Give your child plenty of water to replenish the lost fluids in their body.
