If your baby or child looses their appetite, runs a fever there are several concerns. For babies, look for nasal flaring and if the lung muscles look retracted (like their working hard) these symptoms are serious and your child may need to be sent to an ER. Many children have RSV and suffer from mild symptoms, however it can turn serious quickly. If this should happen to you, be sure you ask for a nebulizer, with medication shortages we have seen inhalers prescribed to three year olds. So glad these parents call their doctor as we recommend a nebulizer, holding the mask up to the baby or child to breath in, It's okay if they are crying. Crying is great for the lungs and the medication can quickly get into the lungs to help the child breath better.
The flu is around this year more than ever, like Covid and RSV
it spreads easily, washing your hands continues to be important as well as covering your sneezes and coughs. We hope today's podcast shares an insight that helps you ask questions to your doctor in a time of need.
