How to prevent colds in children in spring

Everything grows in spring, and many bacteria are likely to appear at this time, so everyone must pay attention to prevent bacteria. Because young children's organs are not fully developed, they are susceptible to bacterial infections and may develop cold symptoms. Colds can have many impacts on young children, so parents should help their children prevent colds in the spring. Below we introduce some methods for young children to prevent colds in the spring.

However, spring colds in children are also the most troublesome problem for parents. Children are young and everything depends on their parents' care. Once they get sick, parents will feel distressed. So how can we prevent spring colds?

Drink more water. Most young children are very naughty and rely on their parents for everything. Parents should pay attention to giving them enough water. The human body cannot lack water. Parents cannot wait until their children are thirsty before giving them water. Lack of water in the body will cause colds and inflammation.

Eat more fruits. Let your children eat more fruits and vegetables containing vitamin CE, such as tomatoes, apples, watermelons, etc. This way, the child's body will be rich in vitamins, which will enhance the child's resistance and reduce the occurrence of colds.

Nutritious diet. In addition to letting your children eat more fruits, you should also pay attention to adding nutrition to their diet. It is good for children to eat eggs, fish and drink milk regularly, because eggs, fish and milk are rich in protein, which can enhance children's immunity, so that children will not get sick often.

The whole family should wash their hands frequently. Babies are very curious and like to touch things here and there, so their hands are unknowingly contaminated with many germs. Adults have a larger living circle and touch more things with their hands, so of course the germs on their hands are more considerable. Therefore, the whole family should develop the habit of washing hands frequently to reduce the chance of infection for the baby.

Increase your baby's outdoor and indoor activities. Outdoor activities are the most effective way to improve the disease resistance of the respiratory mucosa. Even in winter, when the weather is not too bad, it is very necessary to let your baby be exposed to the cold air outdoors appropriately while paying attention to keeping warm. Small babies can also do touch or passive exercises every day; older babies, especially those over 4 years old, can gradually engage in swimming.

Get enough sleep. Young children need to get enough sleep. Children should not be allowed to play at will, as their fatigue will seriously affect their sleep quality. Lack of sleep will cause a decrease in immunity, making it easier to catch a cold and get sick.

Ventilate the room more often. Spring is the peak season for influenza, so you must keep the room ventilated at all times. When the weather is clear and warm, you should often open the windows to change the air. Keeping the air circulating in the room will reduce the growth of germs and the occurrence of diseases such as colds.

Avoid contact with pathogens. When friends or family members around you have a cold, be sure not to let your children come into contact with them, because young children generally do not have very high resistance and are easily infected. If necessary, you can wear a mask at home, which will be much better.

Our immune function will decline in spring and bacteria are prone to breed in spring, so everyone must do a good job of preventing colds in spring.
