What is the best way to reduce fever when you have a cold or fever?

First of all, you have a cold and fever, which is an upper respiratory tract infection. Due to infection by pathogenic microorganisms such as bacteria or viruses, the general course of the disease is about one week to 10 days. If you have a fever, you should check the temperature. If the temperature is below 38 degrees Celsius, physical cooling will be enough.

If the temperature exceeds 38 degrees Celsius and it is necessary to take oral antipyretics, you can take Motrin or ibuprofen granules. At the same time, you should go to the hospital for a routine blood test. If it is determined to be a bacterial infection, you can take oral antipyretics. Cephalosporins, etc., can eliminate the inflammation and the fever will disappear.

When you have a cold or high fever, there are many ways to reduce fever. First of all, you can use some drugs for oral treatment, and the effect of reducing fever is relatively good.

Both children and adults can take ibuprofen suspension or acetaminophen suspension or acetaminophen granules orally to reduce fever. If you are an adult, you can use indomethacin suppositories or antipyretic suppositories and insert them into the anus for antipyretic treatment. For children over six years old, you can also use antipyretic plugs inserted into the anus to reduce fever, and the effect is relatively good.

In addition, physical cooling methods can also be used, such as using warm towels or diluted liquor or alcohol to wipe and bathe the patient's skin all over the body, especially the armpits, groin, neck and other large blood vessels that are rich in blood vessels. In some places, the wiping time should be slightly longer, which will also have a better effect on reducing fever. If the temperature cannot be lowered, medicine should be used to reduce the fever, which is quite effective.

In addition, it is necessary to choose appropriate drugs for anti-inflammatory treatment according to the type of cold. For example, viral colds can be treated with Pudilan Anti-inflammatory Oral Liquid, while bacterial colds need to be treated with antibiotics.

For patients who have a cold and have a fever, the fastest and easiest way to reduce fever is to use hormone drugs or antipyretics, which can generally reduce fever within half an hour.

However, this method only treats the symptoms rather than the root cause, and the fundamental treatment is to determine what kind of pathogenic bacterial infection causes the fever, and then select sensitive antibiotics for treatment according to the type of pathogenic type. Once you get it under control, you will naturally stop having a fever.
