Question
How to safely and effectively reduce a child’s fever?
Answer
When a child’s body temperature exceeds 38.5℃, you can use warm water sponge baths to cool down. Wipe the limbs and back skin with a warm towel until it turns pink, avoiding the chest, abdomen, and neck. Repeat every 20 minutes to effectively lower the body temperature. If the child is diagnosed with a respiratory system disease, immediate medical treatment should be sought and attention should be paid to balanced diet.
