Question

How can a child’s fever be brought down quickly?

Answer

There are several methods to cool a baby’s fever at home:

Cold Compress on the Head: Place an ice pack or a cold towel on the forehead, changing every half hour.
Warm Water Bath: A bath with water around 35°C can help lower body temperature. It is more suitable during summer fevers.
Alcohol Rubbing: Use a 30% alcohol solution to rub the baby’s limbs repeatedly, taking advantage of the large amount of heat absorbed during the evaporation of alcohol to lower the body temperature.
