What should I do if I have a fever or heatstroke? How to reduce the fever?
Fever and heatstroke can be reduced in the following ways: 1. ** Physical cooling ** - ** Transfer of environment and adjustment of clothing **: Immediately remove the patient from the high-temperature and high-humidity environment and let him rest in a cool and well-vented place. Remove the excess clothing. - ** Wiping or spraying **: Wiping the whole body with warm water or spraying the whole body with cold water to promote heat dissipation; you can also wipe the patient's body with cold water below 7 ° C or even soak the whole body. If you have the conditions, you can place the ice pack on the armpit, groin and other places with rich blood vessels on the surface of the body. You can also find water to wipe the whole body or wet the whole body. If there is ice, apply it on the armpit or groin and other places with large blood vessels. - ** Local cooling **: Use ice packs or ice cubes to cool down the armpits, head, and groin arteries, and then use a fan or electric fan to blow. If the patient has a disturbance of consciousness and cannot drink water through the mouth, an indwelling gastric tube can be used to infuse icy salt water to help reduce the fever. 2. ** Drug treatment **: If necessary, you can follow the doctor's advice to take Huoxiang Zhengqi Water, ten drops of water, and other traditional Chinese medicines to lower the temperature. However, do not drink Huoxiang Zhengqi Water after heatstroke because its indication does not include "treating heatstroke". It contains 40% - 50% alcohol, and taking it after heatstroke may aggravate the degree of dehydration in the body. In addition, it was generally not recommended to use antipyretic drugs such as fluralin and parkinson. The correct way to deal with heatstroke and fever was to physically lower the temperature. 3. ** Enemas **: You can follow the doctor's advice and use a 4 - 10 ° C saline solution to lower your body temperature. 4. ** Fluid replacement **: During heatstroke, the patient will lose a large amount of body fluids, resulting in insufficient effective circulating blood volume. Body fluids can be replenished through the venous route, which is also beneficial to the control of body temperature. If the symptoms of heatstroke patients are serious or unconscious, they should call 120 emergency number in time after simple treatment and send them to the hospital for emergency treatment.

How to reduce the fever after heatstroke
The following methods can be used to reduce fever after heatstroke: 1. ** Physical cooling ** - After a heatstroke, you should immediately leave the high-heat and high-humidity environment, go to a cool, well-vented place to rest, and take off excess clothes. - You can use warm water to wipe the whole body or spray cold water on the whole body to promote heat dissipation. If possible, place the ice pack on the armpit, groin, and other places with rich blood vessels. - For patients who have not collapsed, a cold water bath of 2.0 ° C to 14.0 ° C or an ice-water bath can be used to cool them down. Try to immerse all parts of the body except the head in cold water, and keep stirring to quickly disperse the temperature. A wet towel wrapped in ice can be placed on the top of the head. If the patient has collapsed, wipe the evaporating heat dissipation method, but stop when the body temperature drops to 39 degrees Celsius. 2. ** Medication ** - If necessary, you can follow the doctor's advice to take Huoxiang Zhengqi Water, ten drops of water and other traditional Chinese medicine to cool down. - When the above methods are not effective, you can use intravenous infusion of promethrazine or promethrazine to cool down. At the same time, you should pay attention to monitoring blood pressure. 3. ** Enemas ** - You can follow the doctor's advice and use a 4 - 10 ° C normal salt solution to lower your body temperature. Patients with fever after heatstroke should immediately go to the hospital for treatment or call 120 emergency number to avoid private medication to avoid discomfort.

Is heatstroke a fever?
Heat stroke can cause an increase in body temperature, which is a fever, but the fever caused by heat stroke is different from the fever caused by infection (such as bacteria, viruses, etc.). Heatstroke is caused by the body being in a high temperature environment for a long time, and the heat dissipation mechanism (such as sweating and skin vasodilatation) cannot work properly, causing the body temperature to rise due to abnormal body temperature regulation; infectious fever is the reaction of the immune system to pathogen infection.

Will fever and heatstroke repeat?
During a heatstroke, the body's thermoregulation center was damaged, and there was an abnormal imbalance of water and electrons. If the human body did not replenish the lost water in time, it was easy to cause repeated fever. If it was accompanied by an intestinal infection, it was more likely to happen.

How to distinguish between heatstroke and fever or cold and fever
Fever, heatstroke, and fever can be distinguished from the following aspects: 1. ** Reason ** - Fever and heatstroke were caused by being in a high temperature environment for a long time. The internal heat of the human body and the heat absorbed from the outside world exceeded the heat emitted by the human body, causing the body temperature regulation function to be disordered. - Colds and fevers are usually caused by viral infection, but they can also be caused by external factors such as wind evil or cold and dampness in the summer. 2. ** In terms of symptoms ** - Fever and heatstroke were often accompanied by headaches, dizziness, thirst, excessive sweating, fatigue, palpitations, nausea, and other symptoms. Although heatstroke and fever had fever, there were no cold symptoms such as aversion to cold, stuffy nose, or runny nose. - A cold and fever were usually accompanied by coughing, runny nose, headache, sore throat, slight aversion to cold, nasal obstruction, and other symptoms.

The difference between fever and heatstroke
Fever and heatstroke were different in terms of causes, symptoms, and treatment methods. ** 1. Reason ** 1. ** Fever ** - It was usually caused by internal factors. For example, when the body was infected by viruses, bacteria, and other pathogenic microorganisms, it would produce a heat source, or similar situations would occur when the body had inflammation. After receiving the relevant signals, the body temperature center of the hypohedron would raise the body temperature set point and send out signals to increase the body's heat production, such as contracting the skin's capillaries to prevent heat dissipation, thus increasing the body temperature. In addition, tumors such as hormonal tumors may also cause fever. 2. ** Heat stroke ** - It was mainly due to environmental factors. When the human body is in an environment with high temperature, high humidity, and poor ventilation, or under intense exercise, the heat transmitted from the outside world and the heat generated by the body exceed the heat dissipation ability of the human body, it will occur. This was due to the malfunction of the body temperature regulation center and the failure of sweat glands, which led to an acute illness like heatstroke. ** 2. In terms of symptoms ** 1. ** Fever ** - The main symptoms were high body temperature, which might be accompanied by chills, fatigue, loss of appetite, and so on. When a human body had a fever, it activated its self-protection mechanism. There was a limit to the increase in body temperature. Generally, it would rarely exceed 41 ° C. 2. ** Heat stroke ** - The symptoms included dizziness, headache, thirst, sweating, and fatigue. In the early stages, these symptoms might not necessarily appear as a fever. In severe cases (such as severe heatstroke or heatstroke), high fever, convulsions, unconsciousness, and other conditions may occur. The high fever during heatstroke may reach above 41.0 ° C, and it may be a state of high fever and no sweat, that is, the patient's body temperature is high but the skin is dry. ** 3. Treatment methods ** 1. ** Fever ** - The main thing was to use antipyretic drugs, and to find out the cause of the fever and target treatment, such as anti-infection, anti-inflammatory, etc. However, fever medicine was more suitable when people were not feeling well or in a bad mood. High body temperature did not necessarily require fever medicine. 2. ** Heat stroke ** - The treatment method was mainly to transfer the patient to a cool and well-vented environment, replenish water and vitamins, and seek medical attention if necessary. The fever caused by heatstroke was mainly reduced by physical cooling or drug cooling. Different from the treatment principle of fever caused by inflammation, fever caused by inflammation required active anti-infectious treatment to fundamentally lower the body temperature.

Will a fever and heatstroke kill you?
Fever and heatstroke could be life-threatening. Heatstroke could be divided into pre-heat stroke, mild heat stroke, and severe heat stroke according to its severity. Among them, severe heat stroke included heat spasms, heat exhaustion, and heatstroke. Heatstroke was the most serious form of heatstroke. In severe heatstroke, the body temperature may rise sharply by more than 40 degrees. For example, the body temperature of patients with heatstroke may reach 42 degrees or higher, which will cause high fever, dry skin, no sweat, headache, nausea or vomiting, rapid heartbeat, rapid breathing, coma, etc., which may be accompanied by obvious disturbances of blood biochemistry and alkali-acidic balance. In serious cases, circulatory failure, shock, and even death may occur. Moreover, high temperatures could also cause protein degeneration in the body, affecting the central nervous system, heart, liver, kidneys, and other solid organs. Even if they survived treatment, they might face serious sequelae. However, if the right countermeasures were taken in time after the heatstroke, such as physical cooling, replenishment of water and vitamins, the severity of the heatstroke could be avoided.

Fever for 3 days after heatstroke
Having a fever for three days after a heatstroke was a serious condition that needed to be taken seriously. First of all, active cooling treatment should be carried out. For example, the patient should be transferred to a cool and airy place, unbuttoned, wiped the body with cold water below 7 ° C, or even soaked the whole body. Cold water or ice water could also be poured into the body to quickly lower the body temperature. The patient could be given to drink cold salty drinks to help cool down. If the patient had a disturbance of consciousness and could not drink water through the mouth, an indwelling gastric tube could be used to infuse ice salt water to help the fever. If the patient's body temperature still does not drop or the symptoms are not relieved after the above external cooling measures, or if the patient has severe heatstroke symptoms such as consciousness disorder, muscle spasm, convulsion, etc., the patient must seek medical advice promptly and carry out internal cooling under the guidance of a doctor.(For example, gastric or intestinal irrigation with ice salt water), medication to cool down (for example, intravenous infusion of Thoracobin, but it needs to be used under the guidance of a doctor), and fluid replacement (supplement with normal salt water, glucose solution, and potassium chloride-like solution), etc., to prevent the condition from worsening, causing multiple organ damage and endangering the patient's life. At the same time, because the fever caused by heatstroke was different from the fever caused by general inflammation, it was not allowed to take antipyretic drugs on its own, so as not to aggravate the symptoms, damage the organs, and delay the rescue time.
