Allergies in children make many mothers and fathers very worried. Other people’s children have coughs that they can carry on their own, or they can get better after two or three payments of medicine. However, their own children have allergic coughs, which are not good for a long time, and they can easily stop coughing, but after a while, they relapse again if they are not careful. Do allergies come from eating? Pediatric allergies can cause many diseases, such as allergic rhinitis, asthma, cough, purpura, eczema, hives, conjunctivitis, diarrhea and so on. So, why is your child allergic? Some parents will say that my child’s drinking milk causes allergies, or that my child’s eating seafood causes allergies. It seems that the cause of your child’s allergy is external. Actually, it is not! Chinese medicine says “no internal injury, no external sensation”, philosophers say “external causes work through internal causes”, and in the words of the people, “flies do not bite seamless eggs”. Parents think about why milk and seafood are delicious in other children’s mouths? Why can other children play in the park flowers? When one parent has allergies, their next generation has about 1/2 chance of suffering from allergic diseases; if both parents have allergies, their children can suffer from allergic diseases up to 90% or more. Second, environmental causes Allergies have a lot to do with environmental pollution, such as car exhaust, haze, dust, and sycamore tree hairs, which can also cause allergies in children. Third, food causes On the basis of allergic constitution, if the child usually pays very little attention to the diet structure and eating habits, it can lead to the child in a hypersensitive state, once he or she eats special food or encounters upper respiratory tract infections and other triggers will occur allergies, in terms of eating such as mangoes, durian, seafood that we often eat will be allergic, so it can be said that allergic diseases are to a certain extent eaten out. Six symptoms of allergies In pediatric clinics, some parents are very surprised that the doctor will take a look at their child and say, “Your child is allergic!” This is very frustrating for many parents. Where do pediatricians see this? In general, there are six major symptoms of an allergic child. Long eyelashes – A small child with long eyelashes will look like a doll and look very cute, but long eyelashes are an important reference for allergies. Blue white eyes – Observe your child’s eyes to see if they are blue. Dark spots under the eyes are more obvious – These children are very common. Some parents may find that their children actually have dark circles under their eyes at a young age, don’t be surprised, this is actually a manifestation of allergies. Sneezing and runny nose – If your child sneezes or has a runny nose in the morning or when he or she encounters cold air, mothers should be alert to the possibility of allergies. Itchy eyes, itchy nose – This is also well understood, allergies produce an irritation and the child will feel itchy eyes and nose. Mosquito bites, big reactions, often appear large bumps – other children by mosquito bites, will be a small red dot, but your child has a large red blisters, long time does not recede, but also very likely to be allergic. Finally, once again, the above 6 symptoms only suggest that there is a high possibility of allergies, but not absolutely. For example, we can’t rule out the possibility that some children are healthy and have long eyelashes. There are good ways to combat allergies. Children with allergies are prone to recurring illnesses and require frequent medication, so these children are weaker. Dr. Ren Xianqing offers a few tricks for everyone. Firstly, Chinese medicine is used to regulate the body. According to Chinese medicine, there are nine types of body types, including Yang deficiency, dampness and heat. If your child is weak and often gets sick, you can take some Chinese herbal medicine to bring your child’s constitution closer to the calm quality. Director Ren found in his outpatient treatment that the frequency of recurrence of allergic diseases in children would be greatly reduced after the treatment with Chinese herbal medicine. The reason is simple: with a better constitution, the ability to resist external evil is enhanced, and of course, the disease is less likely to recur. Second, dietary conditioning Many allergic children are very inattentive to their diet, and their bodies are in a state of hypersensitivity for a long time, so once they encounter a trigger, they will easily develop the disease. Therefore, parents should pay attention to the child’s diet must be “three more and one less”, that is, more vegetables, more water, more exercise, less snacks, meat and high protein diet. Here parents must correctly understand that ah, eat less is not not to eat, is the normal reasonable, scientific intake, for children aged 1-6 years old, the normal proportion of food is roughly 10%-15% protein; 30%-35% fat; 55%-65% carbohydrates. Parents must pay attention to the fact that exercise is very beneficial to the whole body’s motor system, nervous system, respiratory system and blood system, and is more conducive to improving the body’s ability to resist disease. Fourthly, vaccination Timely preventive vaccination, such as vaccination against measles, whooping cough, rubella, etc., can effectively improve the immunity of children to these respiratory infectious diseases, parents can be advised by doctors to vaccinate the corresponding vaccines!
