Recently, with the gradual decrease in temperature, the incidence of respiratory diseases among children has also shown an upward trend. As an experienced doctor, I would like to share with you some professional knowledge and prevention methods on this phenomenon.
First, we need to understand why children are susceptible to respiratory diseases. In TCM theory, this is mainly related to the lack of lung qi and the invasion of external evils. The lungs are delicate and susceptible to external evils, and the child's own lungs are not filled with qi and have weak resistance, so they are prone to disease. Therefore, strengthening children's lung qi and improving resistance is the key to preventing respiratory diseases.
So, how to prevent it?Traditional Chinese medicine emphasizes "curing the disease before it happens", and prevention is always better than **. First of all, we should pay attention to the child's diet and eat more foods that nourish the yin and lungs, such as pears, lilies, white fungus, etc., to nourish the yin of the lungs and moisten the lungs.
Secondly, it is necessary to let children maintain appropriate exercise to enhance their physical fitness and improve their resistance. In addition, pay attention to climate change and add or remove clothing for your child in time to prevent colds.
What should I do if my child is already sick?Traditional Chinese medicine ** respiratory diseases, mostly use the method of syndrome differentiation treatment. For wind chills and colds, you can choose Guizhi decoction, Jing Fang Septic Powder and other prescriptions;For wind-heat colds, you can choose Sangju drink, Yinqiaosan and other prescriptions. At the same time, it can be combined with some traditional Chinese medicine features**, such as acupressure, cupping, etc., to alleviate symptoms and shorten the course of the disease.
In addition, parents should also be careful not to blindly give antibiotics to their children.
Antibiotics are ineffective against viral respiratory infections, and overuse of antibiotics can lead to the development of drug resistance. If your child has severe symptoms, he or she should seek medical attention promptly and follow the doctor's instructions**.
In short, to prevent and ** respiratory diseases, we need a scientific approach and a rational attitude.
