Have you ever heard of capillary pneumonia? Do you know what kind of disease it is? This is what we need to know. It usually occurs in Tremella fuciformis. They must be very suffering from the oppression of this disease. We all know that diseases are very painful and uncomfortable. So how much do you know about the relevant situation? The editor here would like to introduce you to some information about capillary pneumonia. Let's take a look!

1. This disease is prone to relapse, so you should pay special attention to colds after recovery. It usually takes 2 weeks to fully recover.

Keep warm: Temperature changes, especially cold stimulation can reduce the local resistance of the bronchial mucosa and aggravate bronchitis. Therefore, parents should add or remove clothes for their children in time as the temperature changes, especially cover the children with quilts when sleeping to keep the body temperature above 36.5 degrees Celsius.

2. Feed more water: Children with bronchitis will have varying degrees of fever, and water evaporation is greater, so you should pay attention to feeding the child more water. It can be supplemented with sugar water or sugar and salt water, or with rice soup or egg soup. The diet is mainly semi-liquid to increase the water content in the body and meet the body's needs.

3. Adequate nutrition: When children suffer from bronchitis, they consume a lot of nutrients. In addition, fever and bacterial toxins affect gastrointestinal function and cause poor digestion and absorption. Therefore, nutritional deficiencies in the children's bodies cannot be ignored. In this regard, parents should adopt the method of small meals and frequent meals for their children, and provide them with light, nutritious, balanced and easily digestible semi-liquid or liquid diets, such as porridge, cooked noodles, egg custard, fresh vegetables, fruit juice, etc.

4. Turn over and pat the back: When the child coughs and expectorates, it indicates that the secretions in the bronchial tubes have increased. In order to promote the smooth discharge of secretions, nebulizer inhalation can be used to help expectorate, 2-3 times a day, each time for 5-20 minutes. If it is an infant, in addition to patting the back, you should also help the child turn over once every 1-2 hours, so that the child remains in a semi-recumbent position to facilitate the discharge of phlegm.

5. Antipyretic: Children with bronchitis usually have a low to moderate fever. If the body temperature is below 38.5 degrees Celsius, there is generally no need to give antipyretics. The main treatment is to target the cause and solve the problem fundamentally. If the body temperature is high, older children can be cooled physically, such as by applying a cold towel to the head or bathing with warm water. However, this method is not suitable for young children, and medication should be used to reduce the temperature if necessary.

6. Maintain a good family environment: The child’s room should be warm, well ventilated and lit, and the air should have a certain humidity to prevent excessive dryness. If there are smokers at home, it is best to quit smoking or smoke outdoors to prevent the adverse effects of smoking on the child.
