The most effective way to reduce fever in pregnant women

Fever in pregnant women is not a trivial matter. If you neglect it, it will affect the growth and development of the fetus. Many pregnant women do not know how to deal with it appropriately when they have a fever. So let’s take a look at how to reduce fever in pregnant women today.

If the pregnant woman's body temperature is not higher than 38.5 degrees Celsius and there are no obvious discomfort symptoms, we can consider using physical methods to reduce the temperature, such as applying a radiator, wiping with pure grain wine, for example, you can use a warm cotton towel to repeatedly wipe the body, which can take away the body's heat and achieve the effect of cooling.

Pregnant women with fever do not need to take medication as much as possible. After all, medication has a great impact on the fetus. If a pregnant woman has a fever above 38.5 degrees Celsius and is accompanied by uncomfortable symptoms, she should go to a regular hospital for examination and treatment as soon as possible, otherwise a serious fever may harm the fetus.

The physical method of reducing fever has the least impact on the fetus. The appropriate method is:

First: Use antipyretic patches: Buy baby antipyretic patches in the pharmacy, and stick them on the forehead, neck, and armpits. The actual effect is good, but you can't stick it for a long time. Just feel that the body temperature has dropped, otherwise the pregnant woman will feel cold. The effect will be better if the antipyretic patch and warm water towel are used at the same time, but if the temperature exceeds 38 degrees, you should go to the hospital for medical treatment in time.

Second: Cooling with warm cotton towels: This method is simple and convenient, and is very effective in cooling.

Third: Scrub with pure grain wine: Take some pure grain wine taken at home and scrub the forehead, palms, and soles of feet, which is very useful for reducing temperature.

Fourth: Drink more boiled water on a regular basis: Drinking more boiled water during pregnancy is very important for reducing fever in pregnant women, because drinking more boiled water is conducive to urination, which can excrete viruses and have the actual effect of reducing fever.

Therefore, pregnant women do not need to take medicine blindly when they catch a cold during pregnancy. They should find out the cause of the cold, take care of themselves in time, drink plenty of water, avoid spicy and irritating foods, pay more attention to keeping warm, try to reduce the risk of colds, and if a fever occurs, seek medical treatment in time and take appropriate physical methods to reduce fever.
