Baby's resistance is not as good as that of adults, and it is easy for viruses to invade when the weather changes. Recently, during the season change, it is the peak period of virus invasion, and babies often cry and make noise. Parents carefully check and find that their baby's throat is red and swollen. What should they do if their baby's throat is always red?
Baby's throat redness is probably caused by inflammation. If it's just a simple throat redness and there are no other symptoms, parents don't need to worry too much. Feed your baby more warm water, eat more fruits, and relieve inflammation; If you experience symptoms such as fever and vomiting while having a red throat, it is best to take your baby to the hospital for treatment. Your baby may have a viral infection and should take medication under the guidance of a doctor.
Parents should consider whether their baby often has a red throat due to poor resistance, often caused by weather or uncomfortable air leading to inflammation. If this is the case, parents should pay attention to adding complementary foods to their baby in a timely manner. Breastfeeded babies should supplement with vitamin D every day to promote calcium absorption in the body, expose their baby to sunlight, and ensure indoor ventilation.
It is best not to use medication when a baby has a red throat. It can be regulated through dietary therapy, such as boiling water with pomegranate peel for the baby to take, which can alleviate the discomfort of throat inflammation; Platycodon grandiflorum has a good anti-inflammatory effect. Boiling it in water with licorice for babies to take can have anti-inflammatory and analgesic effects.
Before a baby develops a red throat, prevention should be the main focus, and enhancing the baby's resistance is the key.
