is now changing summer and autumn, and the temperature difference between day and night is large. The cold air not only lowers the temperature of Chongming , but also gives the influenza virus an opportunity to take advantage of. Some children with weak resistance are prone to illness. The number of children who came to see the hospital in Chongming Branch of Xinhua Hospital has increased recently, most of which are influenza and respiratory diseases.

In the pediatric outpatient clinic, many parents are coming to see the doctor with children with cough and fever. It is understood that the number of visits to pediatric outpatient clinics is relatively large, and children mainly suffer from influenza and upper respiratory tract infections, and viral infections are the most common. The doctor told reporters that the main reason is that the temperature difference between day and night changes greatly after autumn, the weather becomes dry and colder, and the physical functions and defense mechanisms of children are not perfect enough, and they are easily attacked by viruses.

Tan Yongqiang, chief physician of pediatrics at Chongming Branch of Xinhua Hospital, said that if the child's body temperature can drop, his mental state is quite good, and generally he does not advocate hanging saline . Oral medications can be treated. In addition, in terms of influenza prevention, it is recommended that children should strengthen their physical fitness and go outdoors more often. Pay attention to wearing masks to avoid going to places where there are many people. Pay attention to washing your hands more often to help your children develop good hygiene habits.

In addition to influenza, respiratory allergies are also a high incidence period of this season. It mainly includes rhinitis , allergic conjunctivitis, asthma , and some are allergic coughs. Children with weak constitutions or allergic systems should prevent them as soon as possible in the fall.

Doctor reminds that once children find that they have continuous fever, cough, poor spirits, and pale faces, they still need to seek medical treatment in time and do not take medicine randomly to delay their condition.
