Season changes, rhinitis babies increase

Ms. Liu's son Zhuangzhuang is 4 years old. Every time the season alternates, children are always easy to sneeze. This year, the strong symptoms are particularly severe. In addition to sneezing in recent times, the child always said that it itchy in the nose.

Seeing the child's nosebleeds several times, Ms. Liu and her family were distressed. After searching the Internet online, the comprehensive netizens said that she judged that the child is suffering from allergic rhinitis. Symptoms, but the child is only 4 years old, can you take anti -allergic medicine at will? Ms. Liu is tangled.

Will rhinitis heal self -healing? uncertain

As the season changes, recently, children have become more parents who have encountered nasal symptoms. "Baby rhinitis" has become a hot topic of parent -child groups, especially for preschool babies under 6 years of age. Nose, parents are tired of care.

The same situation also appeared in the hospital. Xia Zhongfang introduced that recently, the number of children with allergic rhinitis at the ear, nose and throat clinic has increased significantly, accounting for nearly 40 %.

In the face of allergic rhinitis, some parents are more "Buddhist" and believe that this is caused by dry weather. Drinking plenty of water can be relieved. Other parents think that this is related to physical fitness. When the child grows up, the immunity is enhanced, the symptoms will be the symptoms. Can disappear by yourself.

In this regard, Xia Zhongfang said that these practices are inappropriate and repeatedly developing rhinitis will affect their children's future growth and development. Parents should actively pay attention to bring their children in time.

She analyzed that children's frequent nasal symptoms and digging their noses with their hands can cause nasal mucosa damage, and it is easy to cause nosebleeds; they can also cause sinusitis, nasal polyps, chronic rhinitis, and even otitis media, asthma, etc. Extend the treatment cycle.

In addition, long -term symptoms of nose may also cause some systemic symptoms, such as fatigue, poor appetite, sleep disorders, slow growth and development, etc., affecting brain development and face development in the future. Therefore, if the child's nasal symptoms cannot be relieved in a short period of time, parents should actively seek medical intervention.

"Shen medicine" is effective as soon as it is eaten? Buy with cautious

There are also parents discussed in the parent -child group: Many people on the Internet recommend various "magic medicines", claiming that they can alleviate allergies after taking, and at the same time improve immunity and reduce seizures. These are health foods and can be purchased online. " Can you buy it for your child? "

"The" magic medicine ", which has an unknown source, especially the magic medicine that claims to" see the effect "when you eat, and buy it with caution!" Xia Zhongfang emphasized.

She introduced that when the outpatient consultation children, parents often consulted various "magic medicines". Some propagated that they were pure plant products, no hormones, and some promoted "cure" allergic rhinitis. But in fact, the health food of pure plant products has only health effects and has no treatment function; the "magic medicine" that can be effective when it is used may quietly add hormone components to achieve the effect of rapid results; there are some drugs that can be shrinkable to shrinkable can be added to The drugs of the nasal blood vessels can relieve symptoms in a short period of time, but they cannot be used for a long time. Parents lack professional knowledge. They will leave risks by themselves.

For children's allergic rhinitis, there are currently mature treatment plans in clinical practice. By actively preventing and avoiding allergens, cooperating with drug treatment or desensitization, you can try to improve allergic rhinitis. In severe cases, surgical treatment can also be selected. "Rather than buying medicines blindly, it is better to listen to the doctor." Xia Zhongfang said.
