There are hundreds of remedies that may potentially apply in a febrile state. What helps us choose the most appropriate remedy is observing how your child behaves and reacts during the fever.<\/p>\n<p>In the great majority of cases, we can identify a number of features that qualify the fever and allow us to understand the specific way your child experiences this state.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Here is a guiding list to help you identify useful patterns and modalities.<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>At what time of day or night does the fever usually start during the current episode?<\/li>\n<li>How quickly does it rise and how does it come down?<\/li>\n<li>Are there clear cycles (for example every evening, after midnight, early morning)?<\/li>\n<li>Is there a stage of chill (shivering, wanting to be covered)? In which part of the body does the chill start and how does it spread?<\/li>\n<li>Is there a stage of heat (hot skin, throwing covers off)?<\/li>\n<li>Is there a stage of sweat? which part of the body is sweating?<\/li>\n<li>What is the order of these stages? it is not always chill then heat then sweat and sometimes one is missing!<\/li>\n<li>How does each of these stages affect the child?<\/li>\n<li>Are differences in temperature of different parts of the body (eg hot head, cold hands)?<\/li>\n<li>Are there any changes in skin colour (pale, flushed, mottled, patchy redness)?<\/li>\n<li>Any tendency to one-sided symptoms (one cheek red, one hotter side)?<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Then, observe your child\u2019s modalities in a more broad manner:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Do you notice any clear pattern of worsening or improvement (night vs day, after sleep, after eating, drinking)?<\/li>\n<li>Does the child want to be covered or uncovered?<\/li>\n<li>Is the child better with warmth or better with fresh air?<\/li>\n<li>Is the child thirsty or not thirsty?<\/li>\n<li>Does he prefer cold drinks or warm drinks?<\/li>\n<li>Does the child drink large quantities at once or small sips frequently?<\/li>\n<li>Is there increased sensitivity to light, noise, or touch?<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>The general disposition of the child is also a valuable cue:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Is the child more irritable, anxious, fearful, restless, unsettled or clingy?<\/li>\n<li>Does he appear dull, slowed down, foggy, withdrawn, \u201cnot fully present\u201d, drowsy, sleepy, hard to wake?<\/li>\n<li>Is he unusually quiet or hard to engage?<\/li>\n<li>Does he seem overwhelmed by the fever, or relatively indifferent to it?<\/li>\n<li>Is the child better with movement, or does movement make things worse?<\/li>\n<li>Does he want to lie still, curl up, or change positions often?<\/li>\n<li>Does the child seek physical closeness, being held, or does he resist touch?<\/li>\n<li>Are there any new behaviours or postures that appear only during the fever?<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Don\u2019t worry if you cannot observe everything. Fever can present in many different ways. Also keep in mind that acute situations may evolve quickly, and a remedy that helped for a day or two may need to be replaced as the state changes.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&nbsp; Fever itself is not the most important symptom if we only note that there is fever.
