Valentina L. Telitchenko, pediatricianof the highest qualification category, Slavia Clinic Photo: Archive of the Slavia Clinic - A child’s immunity depends on heredity, day regimen and nutrition - it must be healthy and right. Equally important are physical education and sports, a special place should be given to the intake of vitamins and trace elements. In the fight for the strong immunity of the child, the main role is played by the fight against chronic foci of infection, correction of endocrine disorders, treatment and prevention of gastroenterological diseases. Considering the sad statistics (up to 90% insemination by parasites), it is necessary to carry out antiparasitic therapy in a timely manner in combination with properly selected tempering procedures, daily and rest regimen, physiotherapeutic procedures, massage, swimming, regular medical examination. All this will help to make your child’s immunity strong. The doctors of the Slavia Clinic - a pediatrician, a children's ENT, an immunologist, an allergist, an endocrinologist - take a comprehensive approach to improving immunity in children, selecting individual programs for the treatment of acute respiratory infections, bronchitis for each child, using the most modern treatment methods, including physiotherapy, massage and swimming - even for children up to a year.Clinic "Slavia", Rostov-on-Don, st.

Taking drugs containing vitamins A, E, C, helps in the prevention of colds. One can not forget about the healing properties of phytotherapy - medicines based on echinacea, pelargonium, St. John's wort, dogrose, currants have been known for a long time. Knowledge of the acupressure technique and using it not only for the purpose of prevention, but also at the very beginning of the disease will help to quickly cope with the disease. With the onset of autumn, the incidence of viral infections rises. To combat them, antiviral drugs are used according to the prophylaxis scheme, drugs for immunocorrection. But these drugs can not be used without medical recommendations, as they have contraindications. Timely vaccination against viral and microbial diseases will also help you and your child stay healthy. Know: in order not to get sick, you have to make a lot of effort. And the reward for this work will be a strong, healthy child and a happy family!Medical Center "Family", Rostov-on-Don, st.

Parents should pay great attention to the clothes of the child, because the weather is unstable. The same temperature can be felt differently. Wind, humidity - everything affects. +10 in the autumn and +10 in the spring are different things. However, it is clear that the advice “one layer more than self-imposed” is in the past. Today, high-tech clothing is manufactured for children - where an adult needs a sweater, the child will have enough thin turtleneck. I would recommend at an air temperature of -5 to +5 this option: a long-sleeved T-shirt, a membrane or sintepon overalls, winter shoes for tights, wool mittens or gloves, a wool cap or mixed with acrylic. An important element of prevention is hardening. It does not require very low temperatures, but contrast and systematic procedures are important. Tempering procedures must be combined with gymnastics and chest massage. If the child is kept in greenhouse conditions, it is important to create a stimulating temperature environment first: clothing that matches the weather, normal temperature in the apartment (18–20 ° C during the day and 2–4 ° lower at night). From the first year you should teach your child to walk (up to four hours a day). Massage is one of the methods in modern medicine, which is used as a therapeutic, prophylactic, sanitary and hygienic means, which is of great importance in pediatric practice. At the first symptoms of ARVI, it is necessary to start rinsing the nose with isotonic solution. Most antiviral drugs are not recommended for use alone. For a more rational and correct treatment of acute respiratory viral infections, it is necessary to consult a doctor. Only until October 31, 2015, at the Smart Clinic medical center, a pediatrician's appointment is free!Medical Center "Smart Clinic", Rostov-on-Don, st. 2nd Pyatiletki, 29 (the territory of the sanatorium "Nadezhda", entrance from the street Narimanov / Pogodina), phone: +7 (863) 208-03-03, 260-60-67 ._________________________________________________ There are contraindications.
