Let the child put his hand straight, palm up, and the adult should gently push it from point C to point D with the middle finger and forefinger on the thumb side of the child's arm. The strength is the same as that of the first step, and the river should not be too big to avoid hurting the skin of the child. You can't push it in the opposite direction. Push it 200 times in this way. This method is called pushing three levels.
Let the child put his hand straight, palm up, and the adult should gently push it from point E to point F with the middle finger and forefinger on the little finger side of the child's arm, and the strength should not be too great as in the previous two steps, so as not to hurt the skin of the child. You can't push it in the opposite direction. Push it 200 times in this way. This method is called six-prone retreat.
The following step is very important, the position is the same as that of the Qingtian River in the first step, but the technique is different. Let children keep their hands straight and palms up. Adults should dip their middle fingers and forefingers in warm water, especially in winter. The water should not be too cold or too hot, and the temperature is the best. From point A to point B, gently pat the child's arm and blow through his mouth. The strength is the same as the above three steps. The whole process is like a horse crossing a river, doing 100 times. This method is called crossing the river by beating horses.
After completing the above four steps, the child's body temperature will gradually drop in about half an hour to an hour. The above steps are aimed at low fever within 38.5 degrees. If we encounter a high fever with a temperature of no more than 39.5 degrees, we should first finish the above tasks, such as clearing the sky, pushing three passes, retreating six times and crossing the river, and let the children lie on the bed again, bare their backs, and be careful not to catch cold. Adults use the palm of their hands to push down from the child's cervical vertebra to the coccyx, as shown in the figure from point G to point H, and the force is slightly greater than the above steps, pushing 10 times.
If the fever exceeds 40 degrees, especially in the middle of the night, you can take an emergency cooling method-ear bleeding. First rub the highest position of the child's helix, so that the blood vessels here can relax to reduce the pain and also help to bleed, then pinch the tip of the ear with your left hand (pinching can also reduce the pain), and put two drops of blood with a needle. Needles need to be disinfected with alcohol before use. But this method is actually used less, especially for children with diabetes or blood diseases. And the position is not accurate for everyone. In addition, there is a risk of infection in the disinfection of needles.
