Every mother is anxious and constantly worried about her baby getting sick while raising them. But babies are a vulnerable group, not only do they lack any self-care ability, but their resistance is also quite weak. That inevitably leads to illness, as thrush is a disease that often occurs in baby populations. What about the baby's thrush?
1. Disinfection with liquid medicine
Babies with thrush are infected with Candida albicans in their mouth. In order to cure thrush as soon as possible, it is important to actively disinfect the baby's mouth. Mothers can use cotton swabs dipped in soda water to clean their babies' mouths, or have a doctor recommend more suitable disinfectants. But mothers must remember not to use purple potion to clean their babies. Because the purple potion is highly irritating, it can damage the baby's oral mucosa.
2. Pay attention to oral hygiene
In addition to timely disinfecting the baby's mouth, the mother should also pay attention to keeping the baby's mouth clean. You can use disinfectant cotton to wipe the baby's mouth, or dip it in diluted salt water to wipe the baby's mouth. Especially after the baby drinks milk, it is important to give them a few sips of water in a timely manner to rinse the milk in their mouth and avoid bacterial growth.
3. How to prevent thrush
To prevent babies from getting infected with thrush, mothers should pay attention to some details in their daily lives. The nursing utensils used by babies, such as bottles and pacifiers, should be disinfected regularly. Wash your hands thoroughly before holding your baby to avoid introducing bacteria to them.
