Influenza is different from the common cold because it is much more dangerous than the common cold. Not only is it highly infectious, but it also spreads quickly. Therefore, babies with poor immunity become vulnerable to disasters. Will babies catch their breath after getting the flu?
Usually, babies do not experience wheezing after getting the flu, but it may occur in critically ill babies. Therefore, when a baby experiences wheezing, parents must immediately take them to the hospital for treatment, otherwise serious consequences may occur.
However, the symptoms of childhood influenza are generally mild, such as fever, cough, runny nose, nasal congestion, and headache. It is particularly similar to the symptoms of the common cold, to the point where many parents do not take it seriously. But if the baby's fever has reached or even exceeded 38 degrees Celsius, accompanied by coughing or sore throat, then his infectivity is strong and it is easy to cause other members of the family or other children in the kindergarten to experience similar symptoms.
At this point, one should suspect whether they have contracted the flu and immediately take the baby to the hospital. During this period, they should not go to kindergarten because they need to be isolated to prevent further spread of the pathogen. Antiviral treatment is usually very effective within 48 hours of the onset of flu symptoms. If treatment is delayed beyond this time, the effect is usually not as good.
