Many families love traveling by car. But what to do if the child is blown away on the road?
Pediatrician Marina Myagkova shared recommendations that will help parents take the right measures on the road.
“You go on vacation in a car with your family . And during the trip, the child caught a cold. What to do? First of all, we close the windows in the car to avoid drafts,” the expert says.
But we don’t turn off the air conditioner. If there is hellish heat in the car, the child will not recover faster. We make sure that the temperature difference between the street and the interior of the car does not exceed 5-7 degrees.
This is especially important at the moment when, after parking, a child sweating from the heat gets into the car.
On the way, we turn to to the first medical station that came across. The doctor will examine the patient. If it is only a cold, the doctor will select a treatment, and it will be possible to continue the journey.
The father left the child in the car, and then put him in the refrigerator
On the road, we constantly give the child warm sweet tea or fruit drink. It is very easy to prepare it. We buy frozen or fresh berries, put them in a thermos and pour boiling water. Such drinks will give strength and help remove toxins faster.
Doctors ask parents not to leave children in the car
But we remove sweets, cookies and dairy products from the diet during the period of illness. Food should be light and nutritious. Cereals, boiled vegetables and soups are suitable. When you arrive at the place, see the doctor again.
