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

Many people have sore throats due to minor illnesses such as colds or tonsillitis. However, if the sore throat is particularly severe, severe enough to cause fever and difficulty swallowing, or lasts for a long time, more than two or three weeks in a row, then the condition will become serious and may be a sign of some serious illness.

suggestion

>01 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.

>02 Pay attention to the "microclimate" in the room and ventilate regularly. If the harmful substances in the atmosphere exceed a certain concentration, the body's resistance will be reduced; prevent passive smoking.

>03 Do not overdress or overwrap your child. Wearing too much clothes can weaken children's ability to adapt to changes in external temperature;

>04 Reasonably arrange the child's work and rest time to ensure adequate sleep;

>05During the disease season, susceptible children should not go to public places or visit other people.
