Question
Can a child with a cold and fever take a bath?
Answer
When your child has a cold and fever, you can use alcohol compresses to help bring down the temperature. However, before addressing the symptoms of fever, it’s important to identify the cause. Fever can be caused by infections, connective tissue diseases, or malignant tumors. It is not recommended to rush into medication without determining the cause. Children, due to their weaker resistance, are more prone to pediatric general surgery issues. Parents should take their children to a specialized hospital for examination and treatment promptly, and pay attention to regular check-ups, taking symptomatic medication under the guidance of a doctor.
