When parents see their baby is sick, the most important thing is not to panic, because panicking will make things worse. Since many babies have low immunity, viruses can easily invade their bodies and cause some diseases. Many babies suffer from sore throat, which is actually an inflammatory condition. So what should you do if your baby has a sore throat? First of all, parents need to understand that redness and swelling of the throat is actually an inflammatory reaction. Many reasons can lead to inflammation. For example, a baby’s violent crying can easily cause redness and swelling of the throat. Another reason is infection. Therefore, if you want to solve the problem of your baby's red, swollen and inflamed throat, you must first find the cause of the redness and swelling and then prescribe the right medicine. If the baby's throat is red and swollen and accompanied by fever, cough, and infection. So, mothers need to understand whether the infection is a viral infection or a bacterial infection. Anti-inflammatory drugs can only be used if it is a bacterial infection. If it is a viral infection, then all you have to do is wait. If necessary, just take some related medicines as prescribed by the doctor. There is no need for excessive intervention. So how to deal with the symptom of local redness and swelling? In fact, there is no other way. All mothers can do is wait and keep the baby as quiet and comfortable as possible. It is normal for babies to have sore throats, because the antibodies that babies bring from their mothers can only last for six months at most. So after six months, babies will develop natural immunity through repeated exposure to some common respiratory infections. So parents don’t need to worry too much. If the baby is really in pain and crying a lot, you can choose to use painkillers. Of course, this painkiller is not the kind used by adults. This kind of painkiller is actually the antipyretic medicine given to babies when they have a fever. The full name of antipyretic medicine is antipyretic analgesic, such as ibuprofen and acetaminophen. A baby's sore throat usually has the following symptoms: 1. The baby's mouth has a fishy smell, which is most obvious when he wakes up from sleep at night and cries or talks. 2. The baby shows that he wants to eat, but when you feed him, he refuses to eat and keeps crying. 3. A baby who usually doesn’t like to drink water suddenly wants to drink a lot of water. The above is some information about what to do if your baby has a sore throat. I hope this article can help you take better care of your baby. I hope every baby can grow up healthily. The weather has changed a lot recently, which can easily cause colds. Colds can also cause redness, swelling and inflammation in babies' throats, so parents are advised to pay more attention to caring for their babies and keep them warm. |
