5 people in my family are all Yang. Except for her own wife, she has not been infected yet. Because she is a medical staff, she has been supporting in the square cabin hospital for nearly 2 months and has successfully escaped the infection in our family. The order of infection in our family is basically divided into batches, first it is grandpa, then grandma and girl, then big girl, and then me, which also gives us the opportunity to take care of each other.
. Among the five people, the most serious one is our daughter, who is just 2 years old and 2 months old. She has a high fever for three days, which has been between 39 degrees and 41.5 degrees. Her family is anxious and has used all kinds of methods. Finally, she has survived the most uncomfortable three days. Below, I will share my girl’s three-day situation for your reference.

On the afternoon of the first day, Niu Niu started to get fever and was in poor spirits. At around 3 a.m., his body began to get hot. As soon as he measured it, he had already taken 38 degrees 7. He drank the dose of 5ml of the antipyretic ibuprofen suspension for the first time and applied a fever-reducing patch.
After drinking the antipyretic medicine, the temperature did not drop. At 9:30 in the morning, the temperature rose directly to 39 degrees 2. The second time I took the antipyretic medicine. At this time, the child was still a little energetic and knew to watch cartoons.
At this time, the child's grandfather had been sunny for 3 days. I isolated my father in a room. I was fully armed every day to take care of my family, thinking that I would postpone Niu's infection as much as possible, but I didn't expect that I could not escape in the end.
Let me talk about it here. In early 2020, as a front-line epidemic reporting reporter, I followed the fourth batch of rescue teams in Henan to Hubei (Emergency Transfer Team) and the 15th batch of rescue teams in Henan to Hubei (Psychological Medical Team). I spent more than a month in major hospitals and fever wards in Wuhan. At that time, I accumulated a lot of disinfection and protection experience, so I prepared enough protective supplies and medicines, including vitamin C, and let everyone take it.

In the past few days, I have been boiling "lotus seeds, lily, and tremella porridge" for my family to drink, and I have been letting my children drink in the middle. When I am sick, I have to ensure that I eat and drink a lot of water at the same time.
medicines prepared by yourself
The next day at 1 noon, the girl drank another antipyretic medicine (the third time I drank), and another milk. Unexpectedly, I started coughing in the afternoon and couldn’t eat anything, so I could easily vomit as soon as I ate.
The fourth time I drank antipyretics and milk at 5:30 pm. After about half an hour, I vomited out because of the cough. I couldn't mix it in the cough medicine. I didn't drink any of the children in the milk. The most collapsed moment is coming. At night, Niu Niu directly burned to 41.5 degrees, and shed tears in her eyes and didn't say a word. She was so scared that her family was afraid of the child's heat convulsions. Under the remote command of the mother in the square cabin, we constantly use physical cooling. Here I want to tell you how to physically cool down:
anti-heat patch can be applied to the child's forehead and neck, or a cold compress to the child's forehead with an ice towel. At the same time, you can also wipe the child's body with warm water, focusing on wiping the child's neck, armpits, roots of the thighs, popliteal fossa, and elbow fossa. Be careful when wiping. You can wipe it repeatedly, but do not mix white wine or alcohol into warm water and wipe the child's skin to avoid alcohol being absorbed through the skin, causing adverse reactions in the body
at 9:20 pm. The fifth time I drank antipyretics. At around 10 pm, the temperature dropped below 40 degrees, which was 39 degrees 2. During this period, the family was very worried and always paid attention to the changes in the child's condition. At around 3 a.m., the temperature of the child was 38 degrees 6 and he could speak. Only then did he feel a little more at ease. He drank the medicine again (the sixth time he took medicine) milk.
Time came on the morning of the third day. After taking the medicine for the seventh time at 9:40 in the morning, Niu Niu's mental state improved significantly. The temperature dropped to 37 degrees 4 at one point, and the whole family breathed a sigh of relief. The child also started to continue playing and watching cartoons.I thought I had already survived the disease, Niu Niu got a high fever again in the afternoon and reached 39 degrees 7. This time I had a fever, and the child refused to take his body temperature. He cried as soon as he cried, and coughed violently. At 3 pm, I took antipyretics for the eighth time, and it did not reduce my fever until the evening. At this time, I started to contact major hospitals and thought that if there was any problem, I would seek medical treatment immediately.
contacted Zhengda First Affiliated Hospital and Provincial Children's Hospital. The other party suggested that the antipyretics should be treated first. If the antipyretics do not work for the time being, use physical cooling hard. At present, the hospital actually does not have any special medicines. After seeing the doctor, he also prescribed the medicine and gave parents two choices. One is to continue home isolation treatment, and the other is to go to the infectious department of the designated hospital (can only take care of one family)
At this time, we decided to continue the home isolation treatment, use physical cooling and antipyretics, and no longer measure the temperature of the child at night (the child is too distressed), and I took two more antipyretics in the middle. Thinking that if the fever did not subside by the fourth day, I would carry Niu Niu to the hospital. At this time, I, who was not sick in the family at the end (I thought I was asymptomatic), started to get sick that night, had a split headache, felt sore and weak all over, and my legs were like I was drunk and stepped on cotton. I drank Lianhua Qingwen /ibuprofen sustained release capsules.
Fortunately, Niu Niu started to cool down completely after 3 a.m. On the morning of the fourth day, Niu Niu's body temperature basically remained below 37 degrees 5. My family silently prayed that they should not get burned again today. Fortunately, this morning, there was no recurrence.
Today is the fifth day of Niu Niu's illness, because there are still lesions in her body. Although the temperature has dropped, it can be seen that she is still uncomfortable. He is powerless in speaking, occasionally loses his temper for no reason, and his appetite has not yet fully recovered.
Finally, let’s summarize the infection process of children under 3 years old. It is not as easy as imagined. It will cause repeated high fevers. Parents should be mentally prepared. However, it basically matched the course of the disease for 2-3 days (we had a full three days of fever), and the condition was worse than any previous cold in the child. In this process, the advice to everyone is to always observe the child's condition (if you faint from , , you will immediately send it to the hospital). If the child is not good at eating, you can make more liquid food, such as rock sugar pear porridge/singer ginger egg soup/egg noodle soup, etc.

At present, my family's condition is that my father has spent 6 days of illness (68 years old, with a maximum fever of 38 degrees 2), and it is basically fine, except for a little cough; my mother cools down in one day (68 years old, with a maximum fever of 39 degrees 2). After taking antipyretics to cool down, she feels uncomfortable all over, dizzy, nausea and doesn't want to eat, and continues to this day. Big girl, I had a fever the day before (7:30, the highest fever reached 39 degrees 7). It fell in two days, which was similar to a common cold. I just got this symptom. I had a fever the first day. After drinking ibuprofen once to reduce the fever, it rebounded again. Today, the fever has completely subsided, but my throat began to feel extremely uncomfortable and I dared not swallow it.
is here to share today's disease. I hope it will be helpful to everyone. I'll drink some Sichuan loquat dew to moisten my throat. I guess my course of illness will be one day.
