How to deal with herpes in children's throat?

When it comes to throat herpes, everyone may have heard about it to some extent. Those who have children at home should be more familiar with this disease. Why do I say so? Because children are the most susceptible group to this disease. Its medical name is herpetic pharyngitis, which is a common infectious disease in summer. Children can easily be infected with this disease in kindergarten. Because the throat will feel uncomfortable after contracting this disease, children are always prone to crying. Next, let’s understand how we should deal with this disease. Let’s first understand its symptoms.

Symptoms:

1. Fever.

Generally, the patient starts with a fever without any other symptoms, but does not have a runny nose.

2. Cough

It starts as a mild cough that slowly gets worse but never becomes severe.

3 Does not affect fun.

Even if children have a fever due to throat herpes, it will not affect their play and the condition is relatively good in the early stage.

4I started to feel irritable on the third day.

After a few days of fever, the bubbles will begin to burst. It will be more painful at this time, and the child will become irritable and cry.

Treatment:

1. Anti-inflammatory drugs.

Common throat herpes is caused by inflammation and viral infection. When you go for tests, your blood count will be high, so you must take some anti-inflammatory drugs. We gave you amoxicillin powder.

2 Antiviral drugs.

Throat herpes is a viral infection and requires antiviral medication. The medication we gave was ribavirin.

3. Rock sugar pear water.

If your child has a sore throat and coughs with phlegm, you can give him some pear juice and add some rock sugar.

4. Eat light food.

It is best to feed children light food, otherwise their greed can easily lead to vomiting, and irritating food is even more unacceptable.

5. Pediatric massage.

I still advocate massage as an auxiliary treatment.

Precautions

If throat herpes is not treated in time, it can easily become infected with other inflammations. Parents should pay attention to timely treatment.

The above article has introduced the symptoms and treatment methods of herpetic pharyngitis in detail. I believe that even if you are not familiar with this disease, you now have some understanding of it. If your child is ill, his diet should be light, with more nutritious and easily digestible foods. Remember not to let your child eat spicy foods.
