Having a high fever is one of the body’s mechanisms to fight infection. Our body mobilizes its own defense system by raising body temperature to kill the extramarital affair? Generally speaking, germs will die when temperatures exceed 39°C. This shortens the duration of the disease and enhances the effectiveness of antibiotics. If you use drugs to reduce fever at 37-38.5℃ when a cold starts, it will temporarily put the bacteria in the body into a state of suspended animation and make them resistant to drugs. Once they relapse, it is often more difficult to treat. Cold compress If the high fever is unbearable, you can use cold compress to help lower the body temperature. Place a wet and cold towel on your forehead, wrists, and calves, and cover other parts with clothing. When the cold compress reaches body temperature, it should be changed once and repeated until the fever subsides. You can also wrap ice cubes in a cloth bag and place it on your forehead. Hot compress If the body temperature is not too high, you can use hot compress to reduce the fever. Use a hot wet towel to wipe the patient's forehead and limbs repeatedly to dissipate heat from the body until the fever subsides. However, if the body temperature rises above 39°C, do not use hot compresses to reduce the fever. Instead, use cold compresses to prevent the body temperature from continuing to rise. Wiping the body evaporates also has a cooling effect. Experts recommend using cold tap water to help your skin dissipate excess heat. Although you can wipe (sponge) your entire body, you should especially focus on areas with higher body temperatures, such as your armpits and groin. After squeezing out excess water from the sponge, wipe one area at a time and cover other areas with clothing. Body temperature will evaporate this water, helping to dissipate heat. Take a Bath Sometimes nothing feels better than a warm bath. It can also relieve fever symptoms. The baby should be bathed in warm water or wrapped in a wet towel and changed every 15 minutes. Replenish fluids When you have a high fever, your body will sweat to dissipate heat; but when you have a high fever, the body will lose too much water and shut down the sweat glands to prevent further water loss, which prevents your body from dissipating heat. The solution is to replenish fluids and drink a lot of boiled water and fruit and vegetable juices. Fruit and vegetable juices are rich in vitamins and minerals, especially beet juice and carrot juice. If you want to drink tomato juice, choose a low-sodium product. Solid foods should be avoided during fever until the condition improves. If the vomiting is not serious, you can also eat ice cubes to reduce the fever. Pour juice into the ice box and freeze it into ice cubes. You can also put grapes or strawberries in the ice tray. This is especially popular with children with high fevers. Appropriate eye painkillers If you feel very uncomfortable, you can take painkillers. Adults take 2 aspirin or 2 paracetamol tablets, once every 4 hours. The advantage of paracetamol is that fewer people are allergic to it. Since aspirin and paracetamol work in somewhat different ways, if you feel that using either one is not effective in controlling a high fever, you may wish to use both together. Take 2 aspirin tablets and 2 paracetamol tablets every 6 hours. When taking these drugs, you need to get your doctor's consent first. Pay attention to dressing appropriately. If you feel very hot, take off too much clothing so that the heat in your body can escape. But if you shiver because of this, it means you have too little clothing and you should add more clothing until you are no longer cold. At the same time, do not make the room temperature too high. Doctors usually recommend not to exceed 20°C. At the same time, the room should be appropriately ventilated to aid recovery and maintain soft light to relax the patient. Another option is to take some antipyretics: such as Tylenol. If your fever does not subside after eating, you should go to the hospital as soon as possible. The doctor will usually advise you to get an IV drip. You will definitely get better after the IV drip. However, frequent IV drips are harmful to the human body, so it is better not to give it unless it is a last resort. Physical fever reduction methods are for reference only! Please refer to the local doctor’s diagnosis: 1. Wipe your body with a warm towel; drink boiling water! 2. Use an ice water bag on your head, and use a layer of towels to keep the temperature from being too low. At the same time, you must prevent frostbite.

But be sure not to lift the quilt when you are sweating. This method is very feasible. 4. The most effective method is "alcohol bath" and applying ice cubes. Alcohol baths must be diluted with alcohol! Rub it all over the body 5. Use ginger, tea leaves, and sugar to make a cup of hot tea. It is best to finely mince the ginger.

Bleed the tip of the ear. After disinfecting with a three-edged needle (available in medical supply stores and pharmacies), put 4-5 drops of blood on the tip of the ear (it needs to be squeezed to bleed), and the body temperature will drop in ten minutes. 2. Shaoshang bloodletting. Also use a three-edged needle at the Shaoshang point and bleed 3-4 drops. 3. Shixuan bloodletting. Just put a drop of blood on each of the ten points.
