I hate seeing a doctor with a fever and don't want to take medicine. You can do it!

Chen Jiacheng, an attending physician in the family medicine department of St. Martin's Hospital, said that when the axillary temperature or ear temperature exceeds 37.5℃, it is called "fever". Fever itself is not a disease, but an incidental symptom of some diseases. In principle, moderate fever helps to activate the immune system, but the use of drugs to reduce fever will inhibit the immune system, so it can be cured or not.

Generally speaking, fever goes through three stages. At first, the patient will feel cold and have chills (muscles tremble to produce heat). In the middle stage of fever, the cold feeling disappears and people no longer feel cold; Finally, I will feel hot, and my body temperature will return to normal after sweating. If it is a fever with general symptoms, it will go away in about 3 to 4 days. You don't have to see a doctor or take medicine, but at the right time and in the right way, you can also let the fever subside faster and let your body relax earlier.

Dr. Chen Jiacheng shared a simple self-help method when you have a fever. It is suggested that in addition to taking more rest, after chills, or when you feel your body start to get hot, wipe your whole body with warm water or drink plenty of warm water to promote sweating. Or, try grandma's secret recipe, cook a bowl of warm ginger soup, and wrap the whole body with a quilt after drinking it until you sweat a lot and your body temperature drops.

Fever 1 1 case. Don't worry. Go to the doctor quickly!

Dr. Chen Jiacheng reminded that the above methods of reducing fever must be used at the right time. If you choose to reduce fever at the beginning of a fever and when you are shivering, the effect is not good. In addition, it is important to note that if you have a fever or the following conditions after self-rescue, you must be sent to the doctor as soon as possible to find out the real disease itself and treat it.
