What should I do if my 2-year-old baby has mumps?

Mumps is a disease that everyone will get, and most people get it when they are in elementary school. This disease is contagious, so when it occurs, it must be discovered and treated in time. Of course, in addition to children, adults can also get this disease. However, people who have had this disease have antibodies in their bodies and will not get the disease again. The following will introduce the treatment measures after the disease.

In addition to going to the hospital for treatment, children with mumps can also try single-remedy treatment. In addition, children's eating utensils should be kept separate and boiled and disinfected regularly. The sick child's clothes, bedding and other items can be taken outdoors to dry in the sun during the illness. Washbasins, towels, handkerchiefs and other items need to be scalded with boiling water 1-2 times a day.
