Careful observation: Carefully observe your baby daily for rashes all over the body; swollen lymph nodes in the armpits and roots of the thighs; dull eyes; bleeding spots all over the body; diarrhea, etc. Because some diseases, such as hand, foot and mouth disease, scarlet fever, autumn diarrhea early symptoms and colds are very similar. If there is a delay in recovery from a cold and the symptoms worsen, with coughing and tightness of breath, there is thought of any aggravation of the disease or complications. 6 months to 3 years old children with colds, also be alert to high fever convulsions. The cold itself is caused by a virus, but the cold is followed by a decrease in resistance, germs may take advantage of the opportunity to stimulate bacterial infection. The infection can spread from the lower respiratory tract downward, or it may spread throughout the body with the blood circulation, causing sepsis or other septic diseases. In addition, it may also cause immune diseases such as rheumatic fever and acute nephritis. Therefore, attention should be paid to: Otitis media: high fever, ear pain, irritability, ear scratching Sinusitis: runny nose for more than 10 days without improvement, thick yellow-green nasal discharge, severe nasal congestion, headache Pneumonia: high fever, difficulty in breathing, increased cough, loss of appetite Meningitis: stiff neck, severe pain, vomiting, fever, fear of light, even unconsciousness Adequate rest: the younger the child, the more important it is to get adequate rest. Sometimes, even if the baby is sick, he or she will not necessarily rest, but will instead pester the mother. This indicates that the child still has strength and the mother should not worry about it. During the rest period of the sick child, keep the room temperature appropriate, fresh air, moist, and no smoking. Stuffy and runny nose: Before breastfeeding, the mother can put a hot towel on the baby’s nose or rub the nose gently to make the runny nose flow easily. When breastfeeding, you can take a break and send your face sideways to make the stuffy nose on the upward side disappear. If the nose is sticky, you can use a nasal aspirator to suck it out. If you only have a stuffy nose and no other symptoms of fever and cough, your mother can give your baby a hot bath, and the moisture will keep your nose open. Take the medicine on time: Even if the fever goes down, it does not mean that the baby will get better immediately, and there will still be other symptoms such as runny nose or cough. At this time, the baby’s resistance is still very weak, and if there is a cough, continue to treat it. In the case of febrile convulsions, the baby’s face will be blue, the teeth will be closed, the mouth will be foaming, the whole body will be stiff or constantly twitching, and the baby will often be unconscious and stop breathing during the period. It is not uncommon for one in 20 children with fever to develop a convulsion, it is genetically related, and after it occurs, it is likely to occur next time. When a seizure occurs, do not shake the baby to bring him back to consciousness, but lay him quietly and flat and loosen his clothes and diapers. Unlike adults with epilepsy, babies do not bite their own tongues, so do not put fingers, chopsticks or any other objects into the child’s mouth, as this is more dangerous. There is no special medicine for cold, mostly symptomatic treatment of nasal congestion, runny nose, cough and other symptoms, and can not shorten the course of the disease, so generally do not need to use antibiotics, especially early viral infection, antibiotics are not only ineffective, the abuse of antibiotics will cause the body flora imbalance, aggravating the symptoms. It is necessary to wait for the child to produce a certain amount of antibodies on his own sufficient to deal with the virus, which usually takes 1 to 2 weeks.
