As long as the baby's the temperature does not exceed 39.5℃, and the spirit is not bad when baby gets a fever, parents can handle it at home. There is a common sense for babies who have a fever: if the hands and feet are cold and the complexion is pale, it means that the child's body temperature will rise; and if the children's hands and feet become warm and sweat, it means that the body temperature will not rise anymore.
Babies may catch cold and have a fever easily, because they have relatively poor physical fitness and weak resistance. Therefore, when the baby has a fever, many mothers will use cooling patch to reduce the baby's body temperature to a normal level. So how should the cooling patch be used? There is something you should konw first:
01. Composition and principle of cooling patch for fever
The cooling patch is usually composed of a backing layer, a gel layer, a polyethylene film cover layer and other parts.
The gel layer of the cooling patch contains a hydrophilic polymer hydrogel. The polymer hydrogel is a multi-element system composed of a three-dimensional cross-linked polymer network and water. It can swell in water and retain a large amount of water without Dissolve. The cooling patch takes away the local heat of the human body through the vaporization of the moisture in the gel layer, and plays a physical cooling and antipyretic effect.
02. Precautions for the use of cooling patch
If the body temperature does not exceed 38.5 degrees, take physical cooling. Wipe the face, neck, armpits, and back with warm water. If it doesn’t work, give the child a warm bath, or rub the child with alcohol and water 1:10. Small palms and soles. Do not rub the skin with pure alcohol to avoid alcohol poisoning of the baby.
Don't wear too much clothes for your baby to ensure that the heat can be dissipated. When a baby has a fever, the immune cells in his body are fighting with the virus to cause the body temperature to rise. If it works, it will greatly improve the baby's own immunity. Don't worry too much if your baby's body temperature does not exceed 38.5 degrees.
The usage time of the cooling patch is generally 6-8 hours, but as long as the baby's body temperature drops to a normal level, the cooling patch does not need to be attached. There are many ways to deal with a baby's fever, such as physical cooling, and medication should be used with caution, because drugs generally have side effects, which may cause a greater burden on the baby's body.
03. Precautions of Cooling Patch
Cooling patch are mainly medical equipment products in the domestic market. If the baby is prone to allergies, it is better to avoid using it or control the use time more strictly. Look at the ingredients of the product. If it contains a Chinese medicine formula, you must carefully consider whether the baby will be allergic to the ingredients.
Babies may also react differently to the same ingredients under different physical conditions. So there will be no allergies this time and allergies next time. So every time you use the cooling patch, you should control the time. Although the instructions may say that it can be used for 4-8 hours, due to age and individual differences, try to avoid using it for a long time. Check the baby's skin to see if there is redness. If there is redness, remove it immediately, wash it off with water, and apply cold compresses to relieve allergies and swelling. If the skin is red, swollen or oozing fluid, seek medical advice promptly.
