How to prevent children from catching colds in autumn and winter? Here are ten sure-fire ways to fight colds

As the seasons change from autumn to winter, the temperature difference between day and night, and between indoor and outdoor is very large. Parents should pay attention to this. Such a large temperature difference can easily cause the baby to catch a cold. When a baby catches a cold, he may sneeze, have a stuffy nose, a fever, and a loss of appetite. Parents feel distressed when their baby is in pain. What should we do? Preventing the baby from catching a cold is the most important thing, and getting rid of the germs is the key. Here are ten magic weapons to help!

Ten magic weapons can not be forgotten:

① Increase the time spent on outdoor activities: Survey results show that children who regularly participate in outdoor activities are significantly less likely to catch a cold than those who participate in less outdoor activities.

② Dress appropriately: Do not add or remove clothes suddenly. Some parents worry that their children will get cold, so they dress them too thickly and too much, which often backfires and makes them more likely to catch a cold.

③ Eat a good breakfast: Eating a good breakfast can generate enough heat in the body to increase the ability to resist cold.

④ Wash your hands before meals and before eating: Children must wash their hands before eating. When adults give food to children, they should not take it with bare hands to prevent the spread of colds through food.

⑤Try to keep the room temperature relatively constant: large changes in indoor temperature can increase the chance of children catching a cold.

⑥ Take measures after catching a cold: After a child catches a cold, he should immediately go to the warm room or kang to warm up for a while, and drink some hot tea, hot soup or milk. It would be better if he can drink some ginger soup.

⑦ If someone at home has a cold, isolate them immediately: If someone at home has a cold, the patient should not be allowed to have direct contact with the child, especially not sitting face to face or sleeping in the same bed.

⑧ When all the children in the nursery catch a cold, they should also be isolated: if a child catches a cold, he/she cannot continue to attend the nursery or kindergarten. If a large number of children catch a cold, the children's activity area should be disinfected, windows should be opened for ventilation, and bedding should be dried in the sun.

⑨ Avoid going out when colds are prevalent or epidemic: Do not take your children to public places or visit other people's homes to prevent infection.

⑩ Actively treat chronic upper respiratory tract diseases: According to research, children with chronic upper respiratory tract inflammation such as tonsillitis, bronchitis, and rhinitis are more likely to catch a cold than ordinary children.

Therefore, these children should pay close attention to the treatment of chronic diseases.

⑴ Regular vaccination is an effective measure to prevent childhood infectious diseases.

⑵ Ensure the nutrition of children. Various nutrients such as protein, iron, vitamin D, etc. are necessary for the growth and development of children. Protein is the raw material for synthesizing various anti-disease substances such as antibodies. If the raw materials are insufficient, the synthesis of anti-disease substances will be reduced, and children’s resistance to infectious diseases will be poor.

⑶ Ensuring adequate sleep is also an important way to enhance children's physical fitness. Active and passive exercises and other forms of whole-body exercise can be performed.

⑷ Take your children outdoors more often, let them get more sun and fresh air.
