What to do if children have fever?

 

Symptoms like cold, cough, sore throat and body fatigue are visible before the onset of fever. But we are left with no idea what to do for a sudden onset of fever without any symptoms. Especially when it comes to children, anxiety can also accompany it.

 

 When it is difficult to get to the hospital during the Corona period, knowing the first aid tips for sudden fever can prevent the body temperature from rising further. Let's know what to do if you have a fever.

 

 Keep body temperature under control

 

 Although it is a remedy that can be done regularly at our homes, it is not difficult to keep the body temperature of the child under control if done patiently and properly. Take a good clean cotton cloth dipped in warm or lukewarm water and place it on the child's forehead.

 

 Once the heat is under control, you can wipe the whole body to control the heat. Do not have cold water. It is also important to know the child's body temperature with a thermometer often.

 

 

 

 

 If the child's temperature is high, cut an onion in two and rub its base well on the foot, the temperature will decrease.

 

 Adequate hydration should be enough to flush out toxins from the body during fever. When the temperature is too high, the water content in the body decreases and the skin becomes dry. Keep lukewarm water near the baby at all times.

 

 

 The child should be made to drink at least half a glass of water every, now and THEN, even if he is not thirsty. As liquid food goes on, the body will get rid of fever fatigue and feel a bit refreshed. If you start with phlegm, you can give boiled water with basil leaves.

 

 

 Fever decoction

 

 Children tend to eat when they have a fever. Therefore, the drug should be added to the potion in large quantities.

 

 

 

 Coriander should be cleaned and ground into powder. During the fever, add one teaspoon to a glass of water and boil it. If you boil it until it becomes half a tumbler and add honey or Sugar to it and give it to the child, illness will not be severe.

 

 

 

 This is an instant anti-inflammatory potion. Take a fresh lemon and squeeze the juice and remove the pith. Lemon juice should be mixed with ginger juice and honey for sweetness. Honey should be added to the extent that ginger and lemon are not sour.

 

 

 

 A teaspoon is enough. It is enough if you give it twice in the morning and in the evening. Get instant energy. A gradual decrease in fever intensity can also be seen.

 

 Rest for the child

 

 One of the most common mistakes mothers make when their baby has a fever is to keep the baby on their lap instead of putting them to sleep. When the body is suffering from fever, the body definitely needs rest. Fever occurs when the body's immune system fights against viral and bacterial germs in children.

 

 During this time, it is important to let the children sleep without running and playing because the white blood cells are working to fight and eliminate pathogens.

 

 

 

 All the above are possible remedies for sudden fever. At the same time, if the child's temperature continues to rise despite the treatment, or if symptoms such as fever, vomiting and diarrhea persist, it is better to consult a doctor.
