In daily life, many parents are worried about their baby's fever, especially at night, so parents often use thermometers and some fever reducing drugs at home. Parents only need to prepare these things, they also need some common sense about how to reduce a baby's fever. So what about a three-year-old baby with a fever of 37.6?
If the baby's body temperature is measured to be 37.6 degrees in a quiet state, then considering that the baby has a low-grade fever, parents should observe whether the baby has other symptoms. If there is no abnormal mental state, the following measures can be taken:
1. After the baby has a fever, parents should maintain indoor air circulation and reduce the baby's clothing. Do not cover the baby with a blanket, and pay special attention not to hold the baby, as this is not conducive to heat dissipation.
2. Prepare a towel, soak it in warm water, and then wipe the baby's limbs and body with a warm towel. You can also cover the baby's forehead with a wet towel, which is very helpful for reducing fever.
3. Give the baby a warm bath, paying attention to the temperature being 2 to 3 degrees lower than the baby's body temperature. You can also add a few drops of wind oil to the water and let the baby soak in it for about ten minutes. Taking a bath can take away a lot of heat from the body, and the cooling effect is very obvious.
4. Drink plenty of water for your baby. If your baby has a fever, try to stay in bed as much as possible. In addition to using the above methods for fever, pay attention to your baby's condition.
