Having a sick child is something that every parent doesn’t want to encounter but is hard to avoid. In the process of getting sick and going to the doctor, parents, especially new parents, often fall into some misconceptions that lead to more work for both babies and adults. Today we take stock of a few of the most common misconceptions parents enter when their children are sick. 1, misuse of antibiotics fever, cough, diarrhea are given antibiotic treatment. The parents of many children who come to the doctor have taken antibiotics orally on their own, not knowing that most fevers and coughs and diarrhea in children are caused by viruses, and that antibiotics can help, not only with side effects, but also with bacterial resistance, which is a big problem. The new antibiotics are developed in 5-10 years, while the bacteria produce resistance in only 2 years, the development of antibiotics can not catch up with the speed of bacterial resistance, eventually leading to human infections without drugs available, and will return to the stage before the discovery of penicillin, human invasion of bacteria helpless. 2, widespread infusion Popular infusion, infusion room patients queue into a queue, in addition to the infusion room in children’s hospitals overcrowded, the grass, under the trees, everywhere parents carrying infusion bags for their children as infusion rack. Some parents who came to the clinic had to ask the doctor to prescribe infusion, saying: my child is not infusion is not labor. The infusion is the most unsafe means of treatment, not only destroying the integrity of the blood vessels, but also causing infusion reactions that can even be fatal. The best safety of treatment is oral, followed by intramuscular injection. Most children can be treated by oral and intramuscular injection, without the need for infusion. 3, cover was sweating to reduce fever child fever, parents are afraid that the child and cold, wrapped layer after layer, and wear a hat and scarf, holding to come to the clinic, some parents think that this can sweat to reduce fever. The doctor called to undo the clothes puzzled, I do not know the child fever needs to be through the skin heat dissipation, wrapped too much, how to disperse the heat. The correct approach is to undo the clothing if the hands and feet are hot, warm water to wipe the body, be ice pillows, head cooling is very important. If the hands and feet are cold, it means that the peripheral circulation is not good, you need to use hot water to rub hands and feet to keep warm and expand blood vessels.
