Ventilation indoors

Patients are generally required to rest in bed, so the room must be warm, quiet, clean, and the air must be fresh. Pay attention to temperature and humidity. Open the window for ventilation 2-3 times a day, but do not allow cold air to blow directly on the patient.

Patients should not wear too much clothes

The quilt should not be too thick to prevent the patient from causing high fever twitches due to the heat not being emitted. At the same time keep eyes, nose, mouth and ears clean and avoid strong light stimulation.

Nutritional supplements

Give patients easy-to-digest, nutritious food, drink plenty of water, eat more fresh fruits, and supplement enough
