When newborns have a fever, drinking ginger water can be considered to help reduce the temperature, but it is advised not to consume it with milk. Additionally, soups with lily bulbs, goji berries, and minced pork, or those with yam, minced pork, and rice, as well as those with scallion whites, fresh ginger, and glutinous rice, can help alleviate symptoms. At the same time, you can also drink a decoction made from American ginseng or codonopsis, white atractylodes, and forsythia as tea.
When a child has a febrile convulsion, it may be due to a febrile seizure caused by high fever. This condition resembles an epilepsy, but it is not epilepsy. Febrile seizures are related to a child’s brain development and a lower threshold for movement. While no special treatment is required, in the future, if the child has a cold with fever again, antipyretic medication should be administered immediately to prevent another febrile seizure. The specific treatment method varies depending on the condition, and it is recommended to visit a professional hospital for detailed examination to develop a targeted treatment plan.
