In life, many parents will be nervous and worried as long as they feel that their children are a little uncomfortable, because children are now the treasures of every family. If the children suffer any loss or harm, then the most uncomfortable are our parents. Many times, parents hope that their children can grow up healthily, but children will encounter some discomfort when they grow up, and many children will have a cold forehead. So what is the matter with the child's cold forehead? This is a symptom of sweating and fever reduction. Pay attention to changes in body temperature. Drink plenty of water How to supplement zinc deficiency? If the examination confirms that the baby is indeed zinc deficient, it is recommended to give oral medication to supplement zinc and then recheck after 1 to 2 months (zinc supplementation from food is of course also crucial). Three major measures to treat zinc-deficient babies 1. Zinc supplementation For babies who are clearly zinc deficient, zinc supplementation can be used for treatment. Zinc preparations include zinc gluconate, zinc sulfate, zinc glycyrrhizate, zinc acetate, etc. The most commonly used is zinc gluconate, which is taken at 3.5-7 mg/kg per day for 2-3 months. If symptoms do not improve after 4-5 weeks of zinc supplementation, see a doctor immediately. Zinc supplements must be used under the guidance of a doctor and do not increase the dosage at will. Excessive dosage can cause digestive tract irritation symptoms such as nausea, vomiting, and stomach discomfort. Long-term use of large doses may also cause zinc poisoning. 2. Treatment with traditional Chinese medicine: If the baby's zinc deficiency is not too serious, or if the digestive tract irritation symptoms are more obvious during zinc supplementation, it is best to use traditional Chinese medicine for treatment. Generally, the method of strengthening the spleen and stomach is adopted, and Codonopsis pilosula, Poria cocos, Atractylodes macrocephala, Atractylodes lancea, Tangerine peel, Chinese yam, Amomum villosum, etc. are selected according to different symptoms. Traditional Chinese medicine's pediatric massage therapy is also very effective in improving digestive function and increasing appetite, and it has no side effects. You can give it a try. 3. Diet therapy should be carried out to provide children with foods high in zinc, such as lean meat, pork liver, fish, poultry and egg yolks. If they have any bad eating habits such as picky eating, they should be corrected at the same time. Generally, babies only need to wear one more piece of clothing than adults. They don't need to wear too much. To see if the baby is cold, you need to look at the baby's lower abdomen. Normally, it is hot. If the lower abdomen is cold, it means it is very cold. Generally, the baby's hands and feet are cold in winter because the baby's peripheral blood vessels are relatively thin and blood flow is not easy. Children can drink more water, keep warm, and take oral anti-cold medicines. Cold medicines have a fever-reducing effect. In addition, you can check the trace elements to see if they are calcium deficient, and supplement cod liver oil and calcium supplements in time. If the symptoms do not subside, it is recommended to go to a regular hospital and take the correct medication under the guidance of a doctor. The above introduces the reason why the baby's forehead is cold to all parents in the world. After we know this reason, if your child accidentally develops such symptoms, then don't worry too much or be anxious. You can relieve the symptoms of the child in time. If the child has a fever, then the child must be treated in time. It is important for children to drink water. |
