Children with high fever at night can be treated by supplementing water, wiping with warm water, taking antipyretic drugs, etc.
1. Supplementing water
to make children drink more water to prevent dehydration.
2. Warming
with warm water to wipe the child's body, especially armpit, groin and other parts to help the body dissipate heat.
3. Taking antipyretic drugs
If the child's temperature exceeds 38.5°C, you can use antipyretic drugs under the guidance of a doctor, such as ibuprofen, acetaminophen, etc. In
addition, parents need to closely observe the child's condition changes, such as shortness of breath, unconsciousness and other abnormal conditions, should seek medical advice in time.
