In summer, because children's skin is delicate, they are easily attacked by viruses and bacteria, causing local skin redness, inflammation and prickly heat.

Generally speaking, prickly heat is more common in children's head, face, neck, chest and buttocks. I feel itchy when I come up, and I have a slight burning sensation, which is easy to form cysts and folliculitis.

It is easy to become impetigo after scratching. Pustulosis is an infectious skin disease. Severe children will have swollen lymph nodes and fever, and some will be complicated with sepsis, rheumatic fever and acute nephritis in children.

The main measures to prevent prickly heat and impetigo are to keep the skin clean, take a bath frequently and change sweaty clothes in time. Children with prickly heat should try not to scratch, nor should they be washed or stimulated with cold water or soapy water. They can bathe in warm water or apply antipruritics. In addition, let children drink more water, drink more mung bean soup, winter melon soup, watermelon juice, honeysuckle dew and so on. , thus playing the role of dispelling summer heat, dehumidification and detoxification.

For children with impetigo, it is necessary to take a bath and cut their nails frequently, and apply purple liquid medicine, chlortetracycline, neomycin and other ointments to the pustule. It is forbidden to abuse hormone ointment such as "skin relaxation" to prevent the spread of skin lesions and aggravate the condition. For some children with poor spirit, loss of appetite and slight facial swelling, we should be alert to acute nephritis and need to do routine urine examination. Those who are diagnosed with nephritis should be treated as soon as possible.

Second, respiratory tract infection: try to avoid going to closed public places.

When the temperature is high in summer, bacteria grow and multiply faster. When air conditioning is used in schools and families, the indoor environment is closed for a long time, and the air is not circulating, so it is easy for all kinds of respiratory viruses to stay indoors. Because the child's resistance is poor, viruses and bacteria are easy to take advantage of it and make the child suffer from respiratory infection.

In addition, chickenpox, mumps and hand, foot and mouth disease are all spread through droplets in the digestive tract and respiratory tract, so special attention should be paid.

Prevention and treatment of respiratory tract infection should start from the following aspects:

1. Parents should take their children to public places with crowded people and bad air as little as possible.

Children should be allowed to drink more water and eat more fresh vegetables and fruits.

3, let children eat some light food in summer to regulate gastrointestinal function and maintain resistance.

4. When using air conditioner, the temperature should not be adjusted too low, about 26℃.

It is best to ensure that children have one or two hours of outdoor sports time every day, and don't always stay in a closed space.

6, pay attention to prevent colds.

Third, intestinal diseases: control "disease from mouth to mouth"

Because of the high temperature and the rapid reproduction of germs, all kinds of food and drinks are easily contaminated by germs, and children's intestinal resistance is weak and their self-care awareness is poor. Eating food contaminated by germs is easy to get sick. In addition, cold and hot, overeating will lead to children's digestive system disorder, which in turn will lead to intestinal diseases.

For children with diarrhea, it is best to wash their buttocks with warm water after each defecation, and it is also important to replenish water and electrolytes in time. Oral rehydration or sugar salt water can be taken several times. The diet is mainly rice soup, deoiled broth, skim milk and yogurt, porridge and soft noodle soup. Avoid irritating food, fermented flatulence food, high-fat and high-protein food, and eat less and more meals.

Prevention is very important before the disease appears, and the key point is to control the spread of the disease. Avoid overeating and let children wash their hands before and after meals. Wash and peel melons and fruits before eating, don't drink raw water, don't eat expired food, try to eat less cold drinks and street snacks, and put leftovers in the refrigerator to reheat before eating.

Fourth, urinary tract infection: pay attention to hygiene.

When the weather is hot, sweating itself is more. Children in school classrooms have a small range of activities and sit in chairs for a long time, which leads to the urinary system being in a hot and humid environment for a long time. If children go to the toilet and don't clean up the pollutants in the urethral orifice and anus in time, it will lead to bacterial invasion and urinary tract infection.

The typical clinical manifestations of urinary tract infection in children are frequent micturition, urgent micturition and painful micturition, that is, bladder irritation symptoms. Parents should be wary that the treatment of urinary tract infection must ensure enough Liaocheng to be effective, which is long and troublesome.

To prevent urinary tract infection, it is best to let children wear cotton underwear, not too tight. Take a bath often to keep your body clean, and wash your underwear often. After cleaning, it is best to dry it in the sun.

Heatstroke: open the window and ventilate to adjust the room temperature.

Regarding heatstroke in children, First Aid Jun has also mentioned it many times in other articles. But the summer vacation is coming, and outdoor activities are definitely indispensable. Therefore, while paying attention to the beautiful scenery, parents must be alert to their children's heatstroke.

Once the child is found to be sweating heavily, dizzy, dizzy, tinnitus, chest tightness, palpitation, fatigue, and a slight increase in body temperature, it means that there has been a precursor to heatstroke. If the body temperature continues to rise above 38.5℃, and early circulatory failure such as accelerated heartbeat, thinner pulse and decreased urine volume occurs, it is a mild heatstroke stage. If there is high fever, restlessness, nonsense, spasm, coma, anuria and respiratory and circulatory failure, it is the stage of severe heatstroke.

The main points of treatment are: firstly, move the children with heatstroke to a cool place, and bathe them with water about two degrees Celsius lower than their body temperature, 30 minutes each time, twice a day. When the body temperature is high, you can wipe the neck, armpit, groin and limbs with alcohol and the same amount of water. You can drink salt boiled water, watermelon juice, 5% sugar boiled water, etc. You can also take Ren Dan, Shidishui, Huoxiang Zhengqi Water and other drugs, and give some antipyretics when necessary. It is best to see a doctor.
