In addition to viruses and bacteria, it may also be due to internal heat. The child's spleen and stomach itself are very delicate, and coupled with improper feeding, it is easy to have stagnation and internal heat.
We can tell if a child is hot by the following details.
1. The stool is dry and hard to pull, and the urine is yellow
If the internal heat accumulates in the body for a long time, it will hurt the fluid, resulting in constipation.
The color of the urine is obviously yellow, the amount is significantly reduced, and there is mostly internal heat.
2. Ear fever
When the child is healthy, the ears are warm, and when it is cold, it will be a little cool, and if the ears are suddenly very hot, the child may even feel hot, most likely internal heat.
3. Sudden redness of lips and cheeks
Sudden redness of the lips and cheeks is mostly due to internal heat, and chapped lips are mostly due to internal heat and lack of fluid.
4. The tip of the tongue is red, the strawberry tongue is yellow, and the tongue coating is yellow
The child's long-term red tongue is mostly due to heart and lung heat, and the strawberry tongue is more obvious, most likely because of depression.
The normal tongue coating is a thin white moss, and if the tongue coating suddenly turns yellow, it is mostly internal heat except for staining.
5. The temper becomes bigger
Some children are irritable and have a big temper, which is a sign of liver fire, which disturbs the mind and affects the mood.
Most children's diseases are related to internal heat, if you want children to get sick less, parents must do a good job of clearing heat, as long as there is internal heat, immediately remove it from the source, so as to suffer less and not delay the child's growth.
Daily parenting, we need to grasp from these aspects:
1. Stay up less late and go to bed early
It is recommended that parents urge their children to sleep at 9 o'clock every night in the Sanjiao Sutra to extinguish all kinds of false fires in the body.
2. Be less angry
If the child is often depressed and unhappy, it is easy to cause the qi to be not smooth, and the qi is depressed for a long time, and it is easy to generate internal heat.
Parents should pay more attention to the changes in their children's emotions, enlighten them in time, and try to keep their children in a relaxed and happy state.
3. Exercise more
Exercise can bring many benefits to children, not only to strengthen the limbs, but also to relax the whole body's qi and dissipate the heat trapped in the body.
Parents can take their children to participate in various outdoor sports to relieve depression.
4. Eat more vegetables
In the child's daily diet, there must be leafy and stem vegetables, which have a particularly strong ability to dredge the intestines and dissipate heat, which will reduce the occurrence of internal heat accumulation in the child.
Many vegetables have the effect of clearing heat and are relatively mild, such as cabbage, white radish and so on, which must be eaten more in winter.
5. Symptomatic conditioning of traditional Chinese medicine
If the child has been hot for a long time, and it is difficult to improve it by diet, sleep, and exercise alone, it is necessary to find a Chinese medicine doctor in time to recuperate.
If the child has been hot for a long time, and it is difficult to improve it by diet, sleep, and exercise alone, it is necessary to find a Chinese medicine doctor in time to recuperate.
Parents should pay attention to the fact that the type of internal heat in children is different, and the idea of conditioning is also different.
For example, for children who accumulate internal heat, the conditioning is mainly to eliminate food and accumulation, clear heat and clear the intestines, and for children with liver depression and fire, the conditioning is mainly to relieve liver depression and clear depression.
Traditional Chinese medicine pays attention to one person, and it is necessary to distinguish the syndrome according to the child's tongue coating, symptoms, and constitution, and do not use drugs indiscriminately. Most treatments take 2-3 weeks to see noticeable improvements.
