The correct way to cool down liquor

Fever is a common clinical problem. In addition to being a simple fever, it may also be a complication caused by a disease. Therefore, fever must be taken seriously, especially by taking good cooling measures. Many people choose to cool down with liquor, but there are certain misunderstandings about cooling down with alcohol. Therefore, when cooling down with liquor, you must be clear about the correct cooling method to avoid counterproductive effects.

1. The principle of wiping with white wine to reduce fever

Baijiu mainly reduces body temperature physically, but the primary disease still needs to be treated. For example, if you have a cold, you need to treat the cold, and if you have pneumonia, you need to treat the pneumonia, in order to fundamentally solve the problem. Each patient's condition is different, so it is uncertain how many hours you can stay awake after drinking Baijiu. You need to measure your body temperature frequently. If it is higher than 38 degrees, physical cooling can be implemented.

2. Methods

Before the sponge bath, place an ice bag or a cold, wet towel on the child's head. Then take off one side of the child's shirt to expose one arm. Dip gauze or handkerchief in the prepared alcohol and wring it until half dry. Then wipe from the outside of the neck down to the back of the hand, and then wipe from the armpit to the palm. After wiping one side, put the sleeve on that side on the child, and then wipe the other arm in the same way. After wiping both upper limbs, let the child lie on his side with his back exposed, and wipe the back from under the neck. After wiping, let the child put on his shirt. Then take off the pants of one lower limb, wipe from the hip through the outside of the thigh to the instep, then wipe from the inside of the thigh to the sole of the foot, wipe from the back of the thigh through the popliteal fossa (behind the knee) to the heel, then put on the pants on this side for the child, and wipe the other lower limb in the same way.

3. Wipe time

Generally, the limbs and back are rubbed for 3 to 5 minutes, and the total bathing time is about 20 minutes. Measure the body temperature after half an hour. If the temperature is below 39 degrees Celsius, remove the ice pack and hot water bottle.
