Infant illness is inevitable. For some common illnesses, such as colds and coughs, parents are not particularly worried. But sometimes the baby's condition can be more serious, and parents can be very worried. So how to treat infantile throat herpes?
Long blisters on the throat of infants are still very common in clinical practice. Herpetic pharyngitis is mainly caused by viral or bacterial infections, and there is also a certain risk of transmission after infection, usually transmitted through channels such as wind vents. Here are several methods for treating infantile throat herpes:
1. In the early stages of infantile throat herpes, antiviral drugs should be the preferred treatment. Meanwhile, during the treatment process, it is important to regularly observe the patient's physical characteristics. If there is a fever, antipyretic medication should be taken promptly. In addition, patients will have sore throat during the onset of the disease. For patients with severe pain, peppermint throat spray can be used to suppress the pain. During the treatment, patients should ensure full rest, drink more warm water, enhance the metabolic function of the body, and eliminate toxins as soon as possible.
2. If the baby's throat herpes grows too quickly, interferon can be nebulized in the throat, and attention should be paid to whether the patient's body twitches during the treatment process, and timely treatment with chloral hydrate can be given. If everything goes smoothly, the cure time is about 7 days, but some patients may experience a series of complications such as meningitis, myocarditis, etc.
3. Due to the contagiousness of infantile throat herpes, it is necessary to ensure that patients stay away from crowded areas during treatment, wear masks when going out, and regularly ventilate and disinfect the living environment of patients.
If a baby has herpes in their throat, they should not only actively receive medication treatment, but also observe the patient's recovery. If the situation is serious, it is necessary to see a doctor in a timely manner and receive intravenous antibiotics to inhibit the development of herpes. In addition, one should avoid eating spicy and stimulating foods in their daily diet, especially seafood, and eat more fruits and vegetables rich in vitamin C to ensure sufficient sleep time.
