Reborn Wife Strikes Back in the 80s

  Chapter 681 Acute rash in children

  After the baby took a bath, wipe it clean with a bath towel, put talcum powder on the little butt, put on clean clothes, and the two carried the baby into the room and put it on the bed.

  The two children crawled up and down on the bed and laughed.

   "I'm watching here, you go take a bath first." Gu Zhennan said.

   "Good!" Guo Xiang nodded.

  It’s hot now, so sweaty.

  After taking a shower, Gu Zhennan was having a good time with the two children with toys.

   "You go and wash!" Guo Xiang said.

   "Hmm!" Gu Zhennan responded and took his clothes to take a bath.

  Guo Xiang put the two children in the bed and they lay in a row. Guo Xiang took a copy of Andersen's fairy tales to tell them the story.

  Although the children are still young, they are very quiet when they hear the story. Maybe they still don’t understand, but Guo Xiang’s muffled voice is very pleasant, and they seem to like it very much.

  Guo Xiang was talking, and the two children became sleepy and closed their eyes with a yawn.

  When Gu Zhennan came in, he heard that there was no movement in the room, so he stepped lightly and asked in a low voice, "Asleep?"

   "Hmm!" Guo Xiang nodded and put the book on the bedside table.

  "Should I carry them?" Gu Zhennan asked.

   "Wait a minute, let them sleep a little better, or they will wake up at once." Guo Xiang whispered.

   "Okay!" Gu Zhennan nodded, walked to Guo Xiang and kissed her on the face. Guo Xiang pouted like a conditioned reflex. Gu Zhennan gave a chuckle and kissed her on the lips.

  The two kissed for a while, and Gu Zhennan took the two children to the nanny room and let them sleep in their own cots.

  The two children still sleep with the babysitter. Although they can sleep for a whole night, sometimes they still have to get up at night when they are tired or hungry. Gu Zhennan worried that Guo Xiang could not sleep well and kept the babysitter to sleep with them.

  Back to the room, Gu Zhennan hugged Guo Xiang from behind and put her in his arms.

  "Now I go to work at the cancer hospital, are you busy at work?"

  "Not busy in other departments before, after all, not so many people have cancer." Guo Xiang shook his head, "but I will see more lives and deaths here..."

  Guo Xiang is a little bit emotional. Although there are severe and emergency cases in other departments, the deaths are still less. Although the oncology department is not in a hurry, it is generally a patient facing death, and his heart is also very strong.

   "Get used to it." Gu Zhennan said.

   "Hmm!" Guo Xiang nodded, leaned back, and rubbed Gu Zhennan's chin. He felt more at ease with him by his side.

  In the early morning of the next morning, Guo Xiang hadn't woken up yet, and suddenly there was a violent knock on the door, "Xiao Guo, Xiao Guo, wake up soon, the baby has a high fever."

  Guo Xiang woke up, quickly got up and put on clothes, Gu Zhennan also got up hurriedly.

   "What's the matter?" Guo Xiang opened the door.

"I don’t know. The baby was fine last night. I covered a little quilt at night. I got up and watched it once in the middle of the night. I didn’t kick the quilt. I have a fever, you can see it soon." Zhou's wife said anxiously.

  The child has a high fever and she is very worried that the host will blame them for not taking it.

   Huang's wife also came out, hugged An An, and said worriedly: "Should I be sent to the hospital? I think the fever is not light!"

   "Let me see!" Guo Xiang said hurriedly, and asked Gu Zhennan to bring the medicine box.

  Take out the thermometer from the medicine box and measure it first. This is an incredible amount, 39 degrees.

  The amount given to An'an is more than 39 degrees, high fever.

  "What should I do? The fever is so bad, do you want to send it to the hospital?" Zhou's wife is anxious. Although Guo Xiang is a doctor but not a pediatrician, he can't get injections at home.

"Yeah, yeah, I heard that a high fever will burn out the child's head. There was a child in our village who had a high fever and didn't go to the hospital in time. Later it burned out and became stupid." Huang Sao also said .

  "Don't talk nonsense, people's brains can't burn out." Guo Xiang said.

  Many people mistakenly think that fever will burn their brains, especially children, but Guo Xiang himself, a doctor, understands that this is wrong.

  There is no clinical evidence that a fever of 40°C can burn the brain, but a fever above 40°C may cause the baby to have high fever convulsions and convulsions. Convulsions can cause brain hypoxia, leading to brain damage. However, it is generally only an ultra-high fever of 41 degrees or more.

  And this time may be a serious bacterial infection, complicated by bacterial meningitis or sepsis.

  General fever will not burn the brain, but encephalitis and meningitis can damage the nervous system.

  The high temperature tolerance limit of brain cells is 41.6℃. If this limit is exceeded, brain cell proteins will be denatured due to high temperature, which will cause irreversible brain damage.

  So generally, the brain will not be burnt even if it is burned to 39 degrees and 40 degrees.

  Of course, if you don’t know how to deal with it, it’s better to send it to the hospital, so as not to delay your condition.

  Guo Xiang took a stethoscope and listened to the lungs of the two children. There was no noise. There was no inflammation in the mouth and no obvious discomfort in the body, but the spirit was not very good.

  Guo Xiang looked at the handprints of the two children again. The children were too young to diagnose the pulse accurately. The main reason was the handprints. The thenar area seemed a little red.

  Guo Xiang feels a little bit in his heart, the child should have acute infantile rash.

  Children’s acute rash is a common disease that children from six months to two years old get, and it is caused by a viral infection.

  Generally speaking, breastfed babies can obtain immune factors from their mothers and will not get sick within half a year of age. After half a year of age, the immune factors are gradually depleted. Coupled with various environmental reasons, the baby's immune system is weak and it is easy to get sick.

Although   Yiping and Yi'an are not breastfeeding, they have always been well fed, so they have always been in good health.

Children’s acute rash is also called infantile roseola. Almost every child will get it, but it is not very contagious. Once you get sick, you will suddenly have a high fever between 39 degrees and 41 degrees. There will be a rash, red rosy macula, so it is also called rosacea.

If it is not for cold or infection, almost every baby has a baby rash the first time he has a fever, but novice mothers are inexperienced. At this time, they often panic. Seeing that the baby is always ill, the fever has gone away. I thought I had a serious illness, and I went to see it in another hospital, but it often made my baby suffer even more.

  Children’s acute rash is a self-limiting disease, and it will get better in a few days. Of course, you still have to deal with it when you have a high fever. It does not mean doing nothing to make it better.

  As long as the fever exceeds 38.5 degrees, the child should take anti-fever medicine.

  Guo Xiang has found the anti-fever medicines for infants and young children from the medicine box, and they have prepared them long before they are born.

  The baby seemed to be uncomfortable, refused to take medicine, and started to cry.

  I had no choice but to squeeze the mouth open and pour it in, and then filled the baby bottle with warm water to make them drink more.

  Gu Xide walked out of the room when he heard the movement, "What's the matter?"

   "The child has a fever, it's okay, I'm giving them medicine!" Guo Xiang said.

  Looking at the child like this, Guo Xiang naturally felt uneasy about going to work, so he called Song Tingshen and said that the child was ill and was going to ask for leave. Song Tingshen immediately agreed.

  As soon as the child cried, and the medicine took effect, he soon sweated and the fever subsided.

  Guo Xiang wiped the child with a towel, and it didn’t take long for the child to burn again.

When my Jiabao had a fever for the first time, I was terribly scared. The child had a fever repeatedly. He went to the hospital to see injections and medicine. Later, I entered a mothers forum and saw many mothers talking about this. I realized that every baby would get it. The child had an acute rash, and then I was relieved after the fever subsided. So mothers don't panic first, find out the cause of the baby's fever, and prescribe the right medicine.
