Fever is not only a manifestation of human resistance, but also a pathogenic factor. Clinically, generally, there is no need to use antipyretics when the body temperature is lower than 38 degrees, because at this time, the body's resistance will increase with the increase of temperature! If the body temperature is high, on the one hand, the basic metabolism of the human body increases and the consumption increases; On the other hand, the water in the body will evaporate, so the body temperature must drop to the normal range.

Guiding opinions:

There are many ways to reduce fever. If the temperature rise is not high, you can generally use physical cooling, such as putting a warm towel on your forehead or using ice when there is ice. If there is alcohol at home, you can wipe your body with alcohol.

If the physical cooling can't be controlled, antipyretics are needed, such as antipyretic suppository (diclofenac sodium suppository) and aspirin, which can be used for a short time.

The combination of the above two methods is generally very effective, and families with conditions can use the above methods to cool down!

In addition, human fever is closely related to its own diseases, and primary disease is the main cause of fever, so controlling primary disease is the main treatment. Therefore, it is recommended that you use the above methods after you have made clear the cause in the hospital, and don't rush to cool down and cover up the illness.

Life care:

Generally speaking, not taking a bath when it is cold or hot, not eating spicy and greasy food, eating more vegetables and drinking more water have a good effect on body temperature.
