Do not stuff the kids and drugs do not sit at home
Holidays have ended, and experts predict the next
epidemic of colds. Begins,
as always, with the children: they infect each other in kindergartens and
schools, bring diseases home, "fall" infection with adults - and so
the circle.
Parents crook trying to cure the child as soon as
possible. Turns out, it
is not always necessary.
The views of parents
If a child is constantly ill, his poor immunity.
Expert Opinion
"In all the major cities of the children
suffer from an average of 10 times a year and this is the norm - says Vladimir
Tatochenko, Professor, and Senior Research Fellow Research Center for
Children's Health. -
SARS does not occur in low immunity, and for good, in the body, which has no
experience of meeting with the virus. Do
not be upset that your child is often sick, you must be happy that he often
gets well! So his body
is fighting in this battle hardened. "
The views of parents
Better longer hold the recovered child home and
not lead directly into the garden.
Expert Opinion
Do not get too long to sit at home after an
illness. The Board of
physicians: today slept temperature - tomorrow the garden. If
you long to sit at home, for this time in your child care facility already
beginning to circulate new viruses to which the child's body is not familiar. So
often it turns out that the kid, not having to come into the garden, again ill.
The views of parents
Antibiotics necessarily need to overcome the most
common cold.
Expert Opinion
Many believe that the most effective remedy
against the common cold - antibiotics. But
the local doctor examines a sick child often and assigns a hot drink and
vitamins.
Parental outrage usually no limit: doctor - not a
professional, do not want to be treated. Doctors
complain, on the one hand, the specificity of SARS does not require use of
immunomodulatory drugs and the more antibiotics, on the other hand, disgruntled
parents, if you do not get the desired assignments, ready to defend the right
to correct, according to them, treatment, and even come to grips with physicians.
"Many parents simply require that children
prescribed antibiotics - says Oksana Kolosov, head of the Club of
practitioners. - But what is the
common cold? When
her symptoms as a diagnosis is often referred to ARI (acute respiratory viral
infection). Explanation
of the abbreviations indicates nebakterialny nature of the disease, and
antibiotics act on the bacteria, but not viruses. Therefore,
assign them to a viral infection is useless. Moreover,
such an appointment would be harmful, because antibiotics will reduce the
activity of the immune system of its own and only hinder the body fight viruses
that cause a cold. "
So if the doctor does not assign you a potent drug
for colds, but this is primarily manifested his concern about health.
The views of parents
If a child has a fever, it is necessary as soon as
possible to bring down the temperature.
Expert Opinion
"Even antiviral therapy for SARS is often
unnecessary: 2-3 days for the child slight fever, runny nose, then it all goes
away, - says Vladimir Tatochenko. -
Nature of SARS is that there is no rational treatment, and there is a rational
attitude. No need to rush. Let the child poboleet. The
tablet should provide antipyretic, when the temperature rises by 40 ° C, and
need not reduce its rate to and up to 38 ° C. Temperature
- this is an adequate immune response to the disease. "
The views of parents
Drugs that are on everyone's lips, the most
effective.
Expert Opinion
In the treatment of acute respiratory viral
infections are frequently used drugs that are on everyone's lips: is
advertising on TV and in the media. Are
they necessary?
"The results of clinical trials in a number
of drugs with antiviral and immunomodulatory properties demonstrated that they
can decrease the temperature for 6 hours earlier than in vivo. Is it worth it for the 6 hours? After
all, any drug - a chemical substance that affects the body of your child, -
said Vladimir Tatochenko. -
Antiviral agents for the treatment and prevention of SARS can be effective if you
catch the virus in the early hours. But
you need to treat them very carefully, because for a number of drugs are
actively marketing the results of clinical trials seem unconvincing. Therefore,
the reason to appoint their children have no doctors. "
Do not drink anything that advertise! Only
advice of the specialist with a medical background can speed up the healing
process.
