Pregnant women are a very special group of people. Not only their daily life needs to be treated differently, but also the use of medications after getting sick needs to be treated differently. Because most medicines can have an impact on the fetus, it is recommended that pregnant women do not take medication casually after they get sick. But pregnant women are also mortal beings, and getting sick is inevitable. So, how to reduce fever in pregnant women? Pregnant women should never use medicine casually after having a fever. If the temperature does not exceed 38.5 degrees, it is recommended to use physical methods to reduce fever. For example, warm water bath is a very good way to reduce fever. Prepare a basin of warm water at about 40 degrees, then soak a clean towel in the water, take it out and gently wring it, and wiping the body with the towel can achieve the effect of reducing fever. Particularly the armpits, neck, back, chest and other areas must be scrubbed repeatedly, as these areas dissipate heat relatively quickly, and warm water scrubbing can quickly release the heat in the body, thus having a significant fever-reducing effect. If the warm water bath method is not effective, you can also add some ethanol to the water. The volatility of ethanol is very strong, and the actual effect of reducing fever will be better. However, ethanol can easily cause skin allergies, so you must make sure you are not allergic to alcohol before using it. You can first use a cotton ball dipped in some ethanol to wipe it behind the ear. If there is no reaction after 15 minutes, you can use it. After using alcohol water to wipe the body, also remember to wipe it again with cold water to prevent alcohol from irritating the skin. In order to speed up the cooling effect, while reducing fever physically, you should also pay attention to drinking more warm water. Drinking warm water helps to speed up the body's metabolism and can also help reduce fever. If the fever is caused by a heat cold, you can also drink some mung bean porridge. Mung bean porridge has the effect of replenishing the body and reducing fever, and can also help reduce fever. If various physical methods of reducing fever do not work, you need to see a doctor immediately and use medication. Compared with the side effects of drugs, high fever causes greater harm to the fetus and may also cause deformities. Especially in the early stages of pregnancy, the rate of fetal malformation with high fever is very high, so immediate medical treatment is the best option for the health of the fetus. |
