The most common disease in infants is an acute respiratory viral infection. In particular, it often affects infants. Therefore, it is useful for parents to know how to correctly treat ARVI in young children, according to the Internet edition for girls and women from 14 to 35 years old Pannochka. Net Depending on the causative agent of the disease, a different clinical picture develops. Accordingly, and the treatment of acute respiratory viral infections in children will be carried out in different ways. So with rhinoviruses there is a runny nose, with adenovirus there is pain in the throat, an increase in lymph nodes and redness of the eyes, with parainfluenza viruses there is a defeat of the throat with the development of croup.

Croup is quite a serious disease requiring urgent medical help. In small children, there is swelling under the vocal cords, in the place where the more loose fiber and many blood vessels. And since in children the lumen of the throat is small, then due to a sharp narrowing, there is first a barking cough that rapidly leads to suffocation, blue lips. The attack manifests itself at night, the child wakes up, sobs, starts to choke. Ancestors, naturally in a panic.

Do not fuss, this will only worsen the situation. You need to call an ambulance, and before the doctor's arrival take the baby in your arms, take it to the bathroom and turn on the hot water. Steam inhalation will make your baby feel better. For older children, you can make a soda inhalation, give a drink warm mineral water without gas or soda solution. To make it, take a third of a teaspoon in a glass of water.

ARVI in children until the year should be cured from the first minutes to prevent severe complications such as otitis, croup, which I told at the outset, pneumonia and seizures amidst the highest temperature.

At a high temperature, especially above 38 degrees, you must definitely lower it. To do this, use candles or give drink Efferalgan or children's paracetamol. The baby needs to be simply dressed, it is not uncommon to drink water, wipe the body with warm water every half hour. It is not necessary to use for this purpose a weak solution of vinegar.

To strengthen immunity, the treatment of acute respiratory viral infections in children contains the intake of viferon, aflubin. With a cold, babies use vasoconstrictive drops only before breastfeeding, if other methods can not clean the spout. It is not necessary to abuse them, because they cause mucosal atrophy. Bury the nose can be diluted in half with water with aloe juice, Kalanchoe, salt substance.

Only the listed medicines are permissible to give the child before the arrival of the doctor. Healing ARVI in children is conducted by a doctor, specifically he does the purpose of any other drugs. Especially when coughing a baby, in principle, consider their compatibility, so as not to lead to a deterioration in the spitting of sputum by improperly selected medications.

Even more importantly, parents organize a normal home, often ventilate the apartment, turn off heaters that dry air, use air humidifiers. Once a day to do a wet cleaning. At least temporarily remove the carpets and soft rugs on the furniture. Remove all books from the glass. It is timely to give the baby a drink, while the temperature of the water should be close to the body temperature, so that its absorption. To feed a baby you need during the disease even more often and a little watery portions. Such treatment of SARS in kids will bring much more usefulness than a useless product on the advice of neighbors and acquaintances.

Because SARS symptoms in babies are different, as I said, depend on the pathogen, and healing should be carried out appropriately. So let this be done by the special. And let the ancestors do their job in the treatment.

One without the other will be ineffective. And do not pay enough attention to mums to fresh air, temperature, humidity and air purity. After all, the child breathes them, constantly being in the room.

And to expect a decrease in cough with stiff and dry air is simply unrealistic. How is it unrealistic to achieve a decrease in temperature with restriction in drinking. It's always worth keeping in mind the parents of a sick kid.

Health. Sumy. Ua.
