What should I do if my child has a sore throat?

When a child's throat becomes inflamed and festering, parents usually become anxious, because every child is the apple of their parents' eyes and they cannot bear to see their child suffer. At the same time, due to their young age, children are generally unable to accurately express all of their intuitive feelings, which increases the difficulty of treatment. Therefore, today we will take a look at what to do if a child’s throat is inflamed and festering.

suggestion

1. Strengthening physical exercise can enhance children's ability to resist respiratory infections. It is recommended to carry out "three baths" (sun bath, air bath, water bath) exercise. Long-term three-bath exercise can not only enhance the physique of susceptible children, but also have a good effect on all systems of the body. When doing three-bath exercise, we should pay attention to the principles of gradual progress, adapting to local conditions, starting from an early age, and persisting frequently.

2. Pay attention to the "microclimate" in the room and ventilate regularly. If the concentration of harmful substances in the atmosphere exceeds a certain level, the body's resistance will be reduced; prevent passive smoking.

3. Do not dress or wrap your child too much. Overdressing can weaken children's ability to adapt to changes in external temperature;

4. Reasonably arrange the child's work and rest time to ensure adequate sleep;

5. During the disease season, susceptible children should not go to public places or visit other people.

Precautions

First of all, throat inflammation is usually caused by coughing, and is often accompanied by a low fever, so it is best to pay attention and take anti-inflammatory and anti-tussive measures at the same time.

Secondly, if your baby has an inflamed throat, be careful not to give him or her cold or sweet food. He or she should drink plenty of water, preferably light salt water, because salt water helps to reduce inflammation and kill bacteria.

Also, the rash may be caused by a fever caused by an inflammation of the throat. The fever will basically go away after a day or two.

Please note that it is best to go to the hospital for a check-up, because if the throat is inflamed for a long time, the voice will become hoarse, which is difficult to treat, and it will also affect the trachea. It is best to cure it as soon as possible.

Throat infection is a serious problem and should not be taken lightly. Especially when the throat becomes festered, timely treatment is needed to prevent damage to the child's vocal cords or the inability to speak. In daily life, children should be taught to protect their physical health and tell their parents in time if they feel unwell.
