Allergies haunt our children everywhere and can manifest themselves at the most inopportune moment. The most "spring" allergy is to pollen. Actually, it happens not only in spring - a number of highly allergenic weeds begin to bloom only from the middle of July.
The most common reactions for such allergies are allergic conjunctivitis, rhinitis and bronchospasm (caused by the same edema). If the child's eyes itch, it means that he has allergic conjunctivitis, an inflammation of the connective membrane of the eyes.
The main symptoms are redness and swelling of the eyes, watery eyes and a desire to scratch your eyes. In this case, doctors recommend rinsing the eyes with a weak solution of potassium permanganate or old tea leaves - this will soothe the mucous membrane and remove allergen particles from the eyes.
Allergic rhinitis (runny nose) is an allergic inflammation of the inner lining of the nose (mucous membrane). Unlike the common cold, it is more difficult to get rid of it. Moreover, if you do not pay attention to allergic rhinitis, it can go into a chronic phase.
The main symptoms of an allergic rhinitis are nasal congestion, watery discharge, frequent sneezing ("in series" - several "sneezes&one after the other), the desire to scratch the nose and swelling of the face.
In this case, in addition to oral tablets, it is recommended to use antihistamine nasal drops - the rest only dry the mucous membrane, which can further cause an even greater runny nose.
But the most "summer" is considered to be an allergy in children to insect bites (especially wasps, bees and horseflies). The first thing to do is remove the bee sting (if you do this with a needle, then be sure to disinfect it), then cool the skin around the wound with ice and cooling ointments.
In addition, be sure to give your baby an antihistamine. In the future, you can lubricate the wound itself with anti-inflammatory drugs, including herbal ones. If there are any complications, contact your doctor immediately.
But most importantly, remember that self-medication is not the best way out, especially when it comes to children.
In case of allergic reactions (they can develop both instantly and after a while), be sure to consult a doctor, as the consequences of "harmless" allergic edema, urticaria, conjunctivitis and other types of reactions can be fatal for your baby.
Try to consult a pediatrician in advance about possible manifestations of allergic reactions in your baby, and also ask about effective means of combating allergies in a child.
