What to do if your child has a cough and runny nose? Quick solution

When a child first develops symptoms of coughing and runny nose, most parents will take certain treatment methods, but general treatment methods seem to be too slow and cannot achieve obvious therapeutic effects. At this time, parents will want to seek some effective treatment methods, because this will prevent the cold from causing more serious effects on the baby's body. So what are the quick-acting methods for children's cough and runny nose?

1. When a child has a cough and a runny nose, the mother can use mugwort to soak the baby's feet. Mugwort has the effect of dispelling cold, dehumidifying and detoxifying, and can treat the baby's runny nose and cough very well. When using mugwort to soak the child's feet, you must also pay attention to the temperature, and be sure not to scald the baby's skin. Also, be sure to let the child drink more warm water after soaking his feet.

2. When a child suffers from cough and runny nose, the mother can also let the baby take more vitamin C, because vitamin C has anti-inflammatory and bactericidal effects, and can also alleviate the symptoms of cough and runny nose in children. In your daily diet, you should also eat more fruits and vegetables that are high in vitamins. You must drink more warm water to speed up your body's metabolism, which can relieve cough and runny nose.

3. If the child's cough and runny nose are serious, you need to take the child to a regular children's hospital for examination in time and use medication under the guidance of a doctor. During treatment, be sure to keep your child warm and never let him/her catch a cold again to prevent the condition from worsening. Also, be sure to let your child get more rest during treatment.

Pay attention to letting your children participate in more physical exercise and outdoor activities in daily life. This can improve their body's disease resistance. Their normal diet should also be light and nutritious. Never let your children eat too many snacks. After a child becomes ill, be sure to use disinfectant to prevent virus transmission. If the child's condition is serious, take the child to the hospital for examination and treatment in time.
