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 various systems of the body. When doing three-bath exercise, attention should be paid to the principles of gradual progress, adapting to local conditions, starting from an early age, and persisting frequently. Pay attention to the "microclimate" in the room, and ventilate regularly. When the concentration of harmful substances in the atmosphere exceeds a certain level, it can reduce the body's resistance and prevent passive smoking.

Do not overdress or overwrap your child. Wearing too much can weaken children's ability to adapt to changes in external temperature; arrange children's daily routines reasonably and ensure adequate sleep; during the disease season, susceptible children should not go to public places or visit other people.

First of all, throat inflammation is usually caused by coughing, and is often accompanied by a low fever, so it is best to pay attention and take anti-inflammatory and anti-tussive measures at the same time.

Secondly, if your baby has an inflamed throat, be careful not to give him or her cold or sweet food. He or she should drink plenty of water, preferably light salt water, because salt water helps to reduce inflammation and kill bacteria.
