What is the disease of dry cough and fever in children?

Children will often experience symptoms of dry cough and fever when the seasons change. This is mainly because most children have low immunity. During the season change, many germs will invade the body, which will cause these problems. After they occur, the children will be asked to stay in bed more and rest, and complications of rhinitis must be prevented during the treatment process.

The inflammatory secretions in the nose of patients with rhinitis can flow into or be inhaled into the lungs through the posterior nasal aperture and pharynx, which is called postnasal drip syndrome. Especially when sleeping in the supine position, inflammatory secretions in the nose flow into the airway unconsciously, which is very likely to be an important reason for allergic rhinitis to develop into asthma (especially nocturnal asthma). Changes in breathing patterns are also one of the factors that are closely related to allergic rhinitis and asthma.

1. Pay attention to nasal hygiene at ordinary times.

2. Pay attention to the method of blowing your nose. If you have a stuffy nose and a lot of mucus, it is advisable to block one nostril. Blow outwards with a little force, then alternate blowing.

3. Maintain the correct posture when swimming and try to keep your head above water.

4. If you have toothache, you should get thorough treatment.

5. Take medication and external nasal drops promptly as directed by your doctor.

6. For those with chronic sinusitis, you need to have confidence and perseverance in treatment, and pay attention to strengthening exercise to enhance your physical fitness and prevent colds.

7. Keep a cheerful temperament and avoid mental stimulation. At the same time, be careful not to overwork yourself.

8. Avoid eating greasy and spicy food, drink more water, eat more vegetables, and keep your bowel movements smooth.

1. Acute cough: refers to a disease course of less than 2 weeks, which is often caused by upper respiratory tract or lower respiratory tract infections and acute asthma attacks.

2. Subacute cough: refers to a disease course of more than 2 weeks and less than 4 weeks. In addition to respiratory tract infections, it can be seen in bacterial sinusitis and asthma.

3. Chronic cough: Cough symptoms lasting for 4 weeks are called chronic cough.

Dry cough in children is the main manifestation of pediatric rhinitis. Most cases of pediatric rhinitis are allergic. The symptoms are nasal congestion, sneezing when exposed to cold air, clear nasal discharge, postnasal drip, memory loss, and poor sense of smell. Many children may also experience itchy nose, itchy eyes and tearing, which is manifested by repeated rubbing of the nose (picking the nose) and rubbing of the eyes, which is called allergic rhinoconjunctivitis. Many children with allergic rhinitis may develop sudden paroxysmal cough (mainly dry cough) or even asthma, which is called allergic rhinitis asthma syndrome.
