Do children have headaches when they have a cold? Do children have fevers when they have a cold?

We all know that children have poor immunity, so they are very easy to get sick and catch a cold. Sometimes a cold in a child can cause some complications. So we need to know whether a cold in a child will cause a headache? Will a cold in a child cause a fever?

Children's colds can cause headaches, but the degree of headaches varies because the degree of colds varies from person to person. After catching a cold, children will have a certain inflammatory response, which will cause headaches, accompanied by body muscle aches, lack of strength, and of course typical symptoms such as fever and cough. Usually accompanied by fever, when fever can also be accompanied by body muscle pain, joint pain or fear of cold symptoms, headache is just a symptom of fever, which is a relatively common situation. Therefore, during the period when children catch a cold, they must be allowed to drink more warm water, pay attention to rest, eat more nutritious foods, and eat more fresh vegetables and fruits, which is conducive to recovery. When the fever drops to normal body temperature, the headache usually disappears. In addition, the child's body temperature should be measured regularly, and it is necessary to give the child anti-inflammatory and antipyretic drugs. Encourage children to exercise appropriately to enhance their resistance.

There are many types of colds, the most common common cold, colds of wind and cold type, and influenza. The initial characteristics of these various colds are roughly the same, such as runny nose, tears, nasal congestion, etc., but not all colds will cause fever. Therefore, children with certain colds may not have fever. For example, some mild common colds and colds of wind and cold type will cause children to have some mild symptoms such as runny nose, cough, nasal congestion, but sometimes there is no fever. And most of these colds are self-healing diseases. Generally, they can be cured in about a week by keeping warm, drinking more hot water, regulating diet, and paying attention to rest. However, viral colds with epidemic characteristics will mostly cause fever in the baby's body, especially in severe cases, it is very easy to have a high fever. Moreover, viral colds often develop rapidly and are serious, so as parents, we must be vigilant and give the baby timely diagnosis and treatment.

Generally speaking, children do experience dizziness during a cold, mainly because the body temperature will rise at this time, which will cause related vasodilation. This will lead to symptoms such as dizziness, which is a relatively normal manifestation. Children with colds may experience dizziness, which may be related to fever, blood pressure, anemia, blood sugar, etc. You can take cold medicine and antiviral drugs under the guidance of a doctor, give your child more warm water, eat more nutritious and easily digestible food, or take your child to the hospital pediatric department for a blood test, fasting blood sugar and other related tests to determine the cause before treatment.

If a child has a cold for a long time, he or she will have symptoms of coughing and inflammation. In severe cases, the lungs will be infected and cause pneumonia. In severe cases, it will cause a fever, which is also a protective reaction of the body. Low fever does not require medication. A high fever will cause a series of symptoms such as drowsiness, dryness of the nasal cavity, and easy bleeding of the mucous membrane. Not everyone is like this, and individual differences vary. Don't worry if this happens occasionally, and no special treatment is needed. Just drink more water to keep the nasal cavity moist and don't pick your nose. If it happens frequently, you should go to the ENT department, check blood routine, do a nasal endoscopy, and further diagnosis and treatment.
