Children's sore throat remedies

Children's remedies for sore throat are milder than those for adults. The specific methods are as follows:

1. Drink plenty of water and add an appropriate amount of salt to the water;

2. Give your children more cold fruits or fruit juices, such as watermelon, banana, pear, etc.

3. Children over three years old who have sore throat can be treated with scraping. You should apply olive oil or sesame oil on the child's skin, from both sides of the spine to the waist.

When scraping a child, the technique must not be too heavy. Just gently scrape each side a dozen times or so will be enough. After scraping, you can let your child drink a cup of warm water. This is a very effective folk remedy for children's sore throat.

4. Massage therapy. Start massaging the child's cervical spine first, then move to the chest and lungs. Press back and forth a dozen times and stop when the skin becomes warm. Then massage the child's arms, and rub the thenar eminence, Hegu acupoint, etc. on the child's hands. After the massage, give the child a cup of warm water, which will help reduce internal heat and restore health.

5. You can give your child some Chinese medicine for treatment, but you cannot use the medicine indiscriminately at any time. Chinese medicine treatment has no toxic side effects and will not affect the child's normal health.
