During the winter, parents do not take appropriate measures so that their children do not suffer the attack of infections such as bronchitis or asthma, at least this is what emerges from the information provided by pulmonologists. Up to 70% of the income of babies that are made in hospitals, suffer from a winter-related respiratory infection.
Luís Maiz, a prestigious pulmonologist who works at the Ramón y Cajal Hospital in Madrid, indicates the importance of breastfeeding to prevent some of the respiratory infections that children suffer, it is perfectly demonstrated that breastfeeding is essential for the child to develop properly and your immune system matures and can perfectly cope with the onslaught of infections. Special attention should be given to children under one year of age and especially in winter if we want them not to suffer from the diseases associated with this time of year, there are several actions that parents must perform, properly shelter the child, not smoking at home , etc.
Another issue of concern is the administration of the medications prescribed by the doctor, because sometimes, given the improvement of the child and false evidence that the disease has remitted, the parents withdraw the child's treatment early, this leads to relapse and the infection is more virulent than when initially contracted. It is necessary to finish the treatment and follow the advice administered by the pediatrician so that he recovers correctly.
As we always say, it is necessary to take care of children, it is the best preventive way that will guarantee a decrease in health problems.
