How to prevent fever and cold in children

Heat cold is a common disease in summer, and children are more likely to suffer from it. Many people believe that this disease will gradually get better, and instead of choosing treatment, this can make the condition worse over time. If parents want their children to avoid being troubled by heat and colds, they should take precautions in advance. So, how to prevent fever and colds in children? If you want to know the answer, please read the following carefully!

1. Use air conditioning scientifically. Due to the large temperature difference between indoors and outdoors and poor indoor ventilation, it is easy to catch a cold and develop a fever. If you do not seek medical treatment in time, it may cause more serious complications such as pneumonia.

2. Pay attention to the art of eating. Medical research shows that colds are closely related to diet. All colds are caused by fatty foods, meat, dairy products, rice wine, etc. The reason is that these foods can reduce the antiviral ability of the body's immune cells and cause colds; eating too much high-salt food can lead to reduced saliva secretion and cause upper respiratory tract infections; eating too much high-sugar food can consume water and vitamins in the body, often causing dry mouth and tongue, which reduces the immune function and leads to colds.

3. Develop hygienic habits. The virus is most easily transmitted through touch with hands. 8% of the droplets sprayed by cold patients carry cold viruses. Cold viruses are commonly found in the nasal secretions of patients. The temperature and humidity of the nasal cavity are suitable for the growth and reproduction of the virus, and they spread from the inside to the outside. The cold virus can survive on a handkerchief for one hour and on the hands for 10 hours. When the patient's hands are infected with the virus, the virus is then carried to other places that they touch - handkerchiefs, towels, door handles, telephones, tables and chairs, etc. Healthy people who touch these places and then touch their eyes and noses will catch a cold.

Through the introduction above, I believe you already know how to prevent fever and colds in children! If you want to solve the problem fundamentally, the only way is prevention. Only if parents take preventive measures, I believe their children will not be troubled by heat and colds. Parents must remember to disinfect everything their children play with, including their children's hands. Do not let children touch their eyes or noses with their hands to avoid infection.
