What to do if your 1-year-old baby has allergic rhinitis

Allergic rhinitis is a problem for many patients with allergic constitutions, but for children who have just turned one year old, allergic rhinitis still needs to be taken seriously. If there is an effective treatment method in the early stage, the child can avoid a series of effects caused by allergic rhinitis when he grows up. Next, we will introduce in detail the solution to allergic rhinitis in one-year-old babies.

If parents know what the allergens are, they should immediately reduce or avoid their children's exposure to them. Children who are allergic to hay fever should stay indoors with windows closed as much as possible during pollen season, especially on hot, dry, and windy days with high pollen content in the air. Keep children who are allergic to animal dander away from animals. If dust mites are the source of the problem, then try to reduce the amount of dust in the room. Wipe dust from surfaces with a damp towel and spray carpets with insecticide to kill dust mites. If your child is allergic to mold spores, make sure the child's room is well ventilated and free of moldy items and dust.

If your child's hay fever symptoms are very severe or he or she must go outside, oral antihistamines may help. If the child's symptoms are very serious, or there is no improvement after the parents' own treatment, they should take the child to the hospital for treatment. Your doctor may prescribe a nasal spray containing cromoglycate or a steroid medication to relieve your child's rhinitis symptoms.

The above content is an introduction to the solution to allergic rhinitis in one-year-old babies. Because the baby's physical and mental health are very immature, whether using medication or physical methods requires careful consideration. At the same time, the child must be kept away from allergens to reduce the chance of disease and protect the child's health.
