Introduction: I believe that all parents have experienced their children's high fever. Especially parents at this stage, their children are too precious. They don't know what to do when they have a high fever. They felt sick and worried about burning their children. Went straight to the hospital in the middle of the night. Fever in children has different causes: internal heat due to yin deficiency, external heat due to yang deficiency, bone steaming due to chronic illness, body fluid injury due to illness, typhoid fever, malnutrition and so on. There are diseases in the five internal organs, each with different symptoms, which are light and heavy, and there are primary and secondary points. There will be mutual influence and connection. We should use drugs according to syndrome differentiation and symptoms, and implement treatment according to the correct method.

In Chinese medicine, when people have a high fever, boiling water with gypsum can quickly cool down. But this is not a symptom suitable for everyone. Let's talk about the symptoms of fever first.

One: the five internal organs are hot.

1, Liver fever caused by fever in children: The symptoms are: difficulty in passing, urgency in urination, excessive anger and shock, lethargy in limbs, and obvious fever at noon. In view of this symptom, Chaihu decoction has obvious antipyretic effect. Chinese herbal medicine consists of Bupleurum, Ginseng, Angelica sinensis, Radix Paeoniae Alba, Scutellariae Radix, Radix et Rhizoma Rhei and Glycyrrhrizae Radix. Boil these herbs into soup to drink. ,

It is better to use Daochi powder for this symptom: the herbal ingredients are Radix Rehmanniae, wooden barrel, Radix Glycyrrhizae and Folium Bambusae. Or soak Xiexin decoction and Coptidis Rhizoma powder in water to reduce fever.

Two: children with high fever should distinguish between exterior and interior deficiency.

People who don't drink water are hot, and the heat is outside; Hot water drinkers, including heat; Fever and fear of cold are deficiency heat; Fever is not afraid of cold as excess heat. Deficiency heat is fever after illness, three or four times a day, and it is the guest's heat taking advantage of deficiency, which is bound to lead to disharmony between qi and blood and weakness. In this case, it is necessary to reconcile qi and blood and supplement qi deficiency, and its heat will automatically subside. Generally, the fever can be reduced with seven flavors and white strokes.

Qiwei Baizhu Powder: Atractylodis Rhizoma, Poria, Ginseng Radix, Glycyrrhizae Radix, Radix Aucklandiae, Herba Agastaches and Radix Puerariae.

Excess heat: the symptoms are lying on your back, unable to sleep clearly, red face and thick breath, hot mouth, irritability and thirst, difficulty in defecation, upset and crying, and cold hands and feet. This cold soup has obvious effect.

Liang Qing decoction consists of Bupleurum, Radix Paeoniae Alba, Radix Angelicae Sinensis, Radix Glycyrrhizae, Radix et Rhizoma Rhei and Herba Menthae. For those who have difficulty urinating, add wick and barrel.

After the deficiency heat recedes, it is not advisable to add it violently, otherwise it will heat up again. Heat is divided into high fever and low fever. High fever persists, qi and blood are full, the five internal organs steam in, sleep is restless, the mind is in a trance, external evaporation, burning both inside and outside, irritability and asthma, and even convulsions. First consider using equatorial powder and scutellaria baicalensis Georgi. Or use Jinlian Powder: the prescription contains Bupleuri Radix, Fructus Gardeniae, Radix Saposhnikoviae, Radix Glycyrrhizae and Fructus Forsythiae. Low-grade fever: The general symptoms are smelly and yellow stools and fever in the abdomen. It is easy to use cold soup.

The prescription consists of perilla frutescens, Rhizoma Cyperi, Glycyrrhrizae Radix, Pericarpium Citri Tangerinae, Radix Angelicae Dahuricae, Rhizoma Chuanxiong and Radix Platycodi. If your lips are deep red and you drink plenty of water, use bamboo leaf gypsum soup. The prescription consists of bamboo leaves, gypsum, ginseng, Ophiopogon japonicus, Pinellia ternata, licorice, ginger and japonica rice.

After the fever went down, there was a fever again. This is deficiency heat. Just use Six Gods to dispel it. That is, the four gentlemen soup of yam and lentils.
