    Children should pay attention to colds, do a good job of nursing, keep indoor ventilation, adjust diet, test the baby's status, and if the child has a fever, it should be timely**.

    1. In terms of nursing, pay attention to rest, colds often cause fever, decreased physical strength, muscle pain, etc., resulting in fatigue and weakness of children, and children do not insist on going to school, which is not conducive to disease recovery.

    2. Frequent ventilation in the room, keeping the indoor air fresh, reducing the virus content in the air, is conducive to disease recovery, and can also prevent infection of people in the family.

    3. Eat small and frequent meals, eat easily digestible food, and drink plenty of water. When you have a cold, your gastrointestinal function decreases, you eat indigestible food, you are prone to indigestion and diarrhea and bloating, and drinking more water is conducive to metabolism and promotes a drop in body temperature.

    Fourth, infants and young children have poor resistance, the younger the age, the faster the disease changes, colds are prone to complications such as bronchitis, pneumonia, otitis media, sinusitis, etc., to closely observe the baby's condition, at any time to see a doctor.

    5. 80% of colds are viral infections, do not give antibiotics to children at the beginning, and should follow the doctor's instructions for bacterial infections before use. Due to the underdevelopment of the nervous system, the baby's body temperature rises too quickly and is easy to induce febrile convulsions, if the fever is above 39 degrees, antipyretics can be used.

    Don't give your baby any cold medicine for the time being, because the principle of cold medicine is only to improve the symptoms of the cold, and has no effect on the cold virus, anyone needs a recovery process for the cold, as little as a few days, more than ten days, if your baby is nasal congestion and runny nose, no serious symptoms, don't give him any medicine.

    What you need to do is to give the baby more boiled water, if the cold symptoms are serious, you can instruct him to take some medicine in the doctor, but tell the doctor not to use antibiotics as much as possible, prescribe less medicine, and try not to use it if you can, because antibiotics are useless for colds, but many doctors know that they are useless and still use them, so that there is widespread antibiotic abuse in China, and now there are superbugs, which are the result of antibiotic abuse.

    Don't go to the small clinic casually, as far as I know and see, the clinic doctor prescribes drugs are scary, my daughter has diarrhea is not good, I took her to the clinic, people asked to hang a drip as soon as they came up, and then when I asked to prescribe less medicine, I also prescribed two boxes of different antibiotics and several other boxes of medicine, there are still many children who come to this clinic to see a doctor, all of them are wearing a hanging bottle, and they are guilty, but later I still only let my daughter eat one, and the amount was reduced a little.

    The children of my friends around me are all going to the hospital to hang up a drip when they catch a cold, so that they all catch a cold as soon as the weather changes, catch a cold when it is cold, or don't know when they get sick again, and it is easy to get sick, which is the result of them always taking the baby to the doctor for medication, and the child's own resistance is getting weaker and weaker, and they are dependent on medicine.

    My baby has never taken any cold medicine, every time she has a cold, I give her more water, although it will be very uncomfortable for a few days, but now she is very healthy.

    The baby is like this, let him recover with his own resistance at the beginning, and his resistance and recovery ability will become stronger and stronger in the future.

    On the contrary, at the beginning of the medication, the baby's body will become more and more dependent on the drug, and its own resistance will become weaker.
