5 steps to use cold press to bring down fever in a child

Use cold press to bring down fever in a child
1. What you will do is to put some cool tap water in a bowl. If you like you can add a few tablespoons of vinegar
in it. If you add the vinegar, the acid present in it helps draw heat out of the skin

2. The second step is to immerse a clean washcloth in the water and wring out the excess water.

3. Then put the wet cloth on your child’s forehead.

4. Remove it and repeat again once you feel that the cloth is warm

5. Repeat the process until the fever has reduced or gone.

It is important to know that you should not use very cold water, as it may cause the internal body temperature to rise.
