Fever refers to the direct effect of pyrogen on the thermoregulatory center, dysfunction of the thermoregulatory center, or various causes of excessive heat production and reduced heat dissipation, resulting in an increase in body temperature above the normal range of cases. Cold fever is beneficial and harmful to the human body, fever when the body's immune function is significantly enhanced, which is conducive to the removal of pathogens and promote the healing of the disease. Therefore, the body temperature is not too high when you do not need to use antipyretic drugs, only need to pay close attention to the body temperature changes, when the temperature is more than 38.5 degrees, we must take antipyretic drugs in a timely manner.
1, maintain air circulation at home:
If you have air-conditioning at home, keep the room temperature between 25 and 27 degrees Celsius, and keep the room ventilated.
2. Take off excessive clothing:
If your limbs, hands and feet are warm and your whole body is sweating, you need to dissipate the heat, so you can wear less clothing.
3, warm water bath:
With warm water (37 ℃) towel rubbed all over the body, so that the blood vessels can be dilated will be dispersed, in addition to the water from the surface of the body evaporation, but also will absorb the body heat.
4, drink more water:
To help sweat, and prevent dehydration. Water has the function of regulating temperature, which can make the body temperature drop and replenish the loss of water in the body.
5. Use antipyretics:
When the central temperature (anal or ear temperature) exceeds 38.5℃, antipyretics or suppositories can be used moderately.
Prevention
One: Timely add or subtract clothing
Timely add or subtract clothing according to the ambient temperature to keep the body temperature normal.
Two: "cold" exercise
Washing your face with cold water can stimulate the skin blood vessels and enhance the body's ability to resist cold and prevent disease.
Three: Nutrition to be balanced
Immunoglobulin content in the body sufficient or not, is one of the factors of the body's immune function is good or bad. Immunoglobulin deficiency, the body's ability to resist bacteria or viruses will decline. Fish, meat, eggs, milk and soy products, etc., high nutritional value, should pay attention to intake, in order to strengthen the synthesis and utilization of protein, in addition, taking vitamin C and vitamin C-rich foods on the prevention also has a certain role.
Four: more exercise
Physical exercise and nutritional balance is equally important, so, usually more exercise, such as running, gymnastics and so on. Walking outdoors more in the morning and evening, breathing fresh air, can enhance blood circulation, improve physical fitness, improve immune function.
Five: improve immunity
Modern medical research shows that low autoimmunity is the root cause of repeated illness. Therefore, it is necessary to use efficient and safe means to fundamentally enhance immunity in order to completely get rid of the harm caused by repeated illnesses. Zinc can improve immunity, eat more zinc supplement food, such as seafood, melon seeds, walnuts and so on.
Treatment
Theoretically, a cold is a self-limiting disease, and even without medicine, as long as you drink plenty of water and take good care of yourself, you'll get over it in a week or so. But if it doesn't clear up in a week, you need to go to the hospital early for checkups and treatment.
For the treatment of cold and fever, mainly symptomatic treatment, it is recommended that the cold caused by fever after the body temperature exceeds 38.5 ℃ after the use of medication, commonly used Dilnuo Ibuprofen Suspension, which ibuprofen components have antipyretic and analgesic effect, non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, for the cyclo-oxygenase inhibitor, conventional dose side effects, used to alleviate the fever caused by common colds and influenza, headache, limb aches and pains, sneezing, runny nose, nasal congestion, sore throat and other symptoms.
Exercise prevents colds
Regular exercise not only helps you build muscle, it also prevents colds. A new study shows that people who exercise consistently five or more times a week are less likely to get a cold than those who exercise once a week or not at all.
