How to treat a one-year-old baby's cold

Colds are caused by mutated viruses and are characterized by fever, cough, runny nose, sore throat, headache, dizziness, nasal congestion, runny nose, tears, body aches and fatigue. Children have weaker resistance than adults and are more susceptible to illness, which often makes adults worry. How should a one-year-old baby be treated for a cold? How can babies with weak resistance prevent colds?

1. If the child has obvious cold symptoms, but it does not affect his mood and diet, do not take medicine even if he has a slight fever at night. If the fever is below 38 degrees, try to use physical cooling methods: wipe the neck, armpits, palms, soles of feet and back with a wet towel. These places are easy to dissipate heat. In comparison, I personally think that the effect of cooling patches is average. Remember not to cover it up, and let the heat dissipate fully.

2. If the child's fever reaches 38.5 degrees, don't hesitate, give the child antipyretic medicine. I always have Motrin ibuprofen at home, and the effect is quite fast. However, if you are in a good mood and have a good appetite during the day, you still don’t need to take cold medicine even if you take antipyretics, but you should add some anti-inflammatory drugs appropriately (some children have different physical reactions to fever. Some children may have convulsions at 38 degrees, which is an overly sensitive physical reaction. Theoretically, it is still a reaction within the normal range. This is what I read in a book. But if this happens, I am afraid that few young parents can remain calm and composed. Don’t bear it, go to the hospital)

How to treat a one-year-old baby’s cold? The above content has told us the answer in detail. When the baby is sick, parents should remain calm, observe and care for the baby carefully, and pay attention to the child's diet and warmth. I hope everyone can pay attention to the small details in all aspects of daily life, take good care of their babies, and keep them away from the troubles caused by diseases.
