It is not always possible to reduce the high temperature in children without the help of a specialist, the problem is that most potent drugs cannot be given to the baby. If the thermometer tends to rise, try lowering the temperature using standard means that are used in therapy for children. If elementary remedies are ineffective, call a pediatrician, a high temperature can provoke a number of complications.
Instructions
Step 1
The easiest way is paracetamol. Give the correct dose of syrup or light a candle. After a few minutes, the thermometer should show a lower figure, if this has not happened, it is not recommended to give it again without observing the interval. If you gave a regular pill, improvement will come no earlier than in 30-60 minutes, since it is absorbed into the bloodstream for a little longer than syrup.
Step 2
Remove all clothes from the baby, the body should cool down. Dilute a weak vinegar solution and wipe the child, the temperature should drop rapidly, but this is not always the case. Do not rub with vodka, it penetrates the bloodstream and causes intoxication, which is already present in the body with a cold. Of course, alcohol lowers the temperature, but the child may become severely nauseous.
Step 3
Mix raspberry jam with warm water and serve throughout the day. Raspberries will naturally lower the temperature, and also remove intoxication from the body, because it has a diaphoretic effect. If the child is allergic to it, it is better not to use it, the condition can only get worse.
