Changeable weather spares no one. We did not have time to rebuild ourselves from the summer heat, as it was already autumn at the gate. And along with it, colds, snot and malaise. Children are especially affected by this. So it was 20, 40 and 100 years ago. And the methods of treatment have changed little since that time. That is, modern pharmacology, of course, works wonders and inventes unique drugs, but most people still prefer to be treated in the old manner. The famous figure skater Tatyana Navka, who on the eve showed how she treats her younger daughter, did not become an exception: "As in childhood we all soared our feet with mustard, drank hot tea with raspberries, and then - prickly socks for the night! Remember ??? "- wrote the figure skater in Instagram.

Moreover, there were those who immediately began to criticize Navka: "Such methods cannot be used if the child has a fever", "What mustard? It's the 21st century." Even the baby's appearance got into trouble: "Does your daughter sit in diapers or something?", "Is she still wearing diapers? What are you saying? The child is big!", "Wean her off diapers immediately!" True, the majority were more restrained and sincerely wished little Nadya a speedy recovery. At the request of Woman`s Day, an experienced doctor commented on the treatment method used by Tatyana, and, to our surprise, also criticized the figure skater a little. - Tatyana's followers are right in some ways: you can really steam your feet in mustard only if the child does not have a fever, - says pediatrician Yulia Ermolaeva. — But in general, this method is considered outdated, and modern doctors are unlikely to recommend it to you. By the way, this therapy itself – steaming your feet in mustard – is called “distracting”. That is, we kind of distract the body so that the blood flow goes from the diseased organ (say, from the throat) to the legs.
