In the cold season of autumn and winter, children have repeated colds. What can we do as parents?

As we all know, the key of TCM recuperation lies in "prevention before illness", that is, keeping healthy qi and preventing diseases.

One point of prevention is greater than ten points of treatment, which has always been the case.

In autumn and winter, cold pathogens are rampant, and various diseases are more likely to recur for sub-healthy babies with qi deficiency and underdeveloped viscera function, especially those with deficiency-cold constitution.

Therefore, we should pay more attention to prevention and achieve "treatment before illness"!

"Prevention before disease occurs" means to foresee the disease before it occurs, eliminate the causes of disease development in advance, nip the disease in the bud and prevent it from happening or worsening.

Speaking of imperial doctor Bian Que, I believe everyone is familiar with him. He attaches great importance to the principle that prevention is greater than cure in traditional Chinese medicine.

Take preventive measures in advance, so that you don't have to suffer from illness and spend more on medical expenses. Why not?

In fact, the real function of TCM health care lies in this, and diseases can be prevented through various effective health care methods, such as three-volt/three-nine-day application, massage, acupoint massage, and meridian slapping.

People's physiological activities are influenced by the four seasons of heaven and earth-spring, summer, autumn and winter, and also change accordingly.

For the human body, it is very important to "hide" in winter.

During the Ninth Five-Year Plan period, the weather is cold, and heaven and earth are in the stage of alternating yin and yang, so there will be a situation of "yin flourishes while yang declines", with yang gathering and yin relatively exuberant.

Babies with yang deficiency in the body and deficiency of lung, spleen and kidney are prone to catch a cold, which can induce cough, asthma, repeated respiratory infections, allergic rhinitis and other diseases.

Moreover, although it has improved after short-term treatment, with a little carelessness in nursing, it is easy for a cold to take advantage of it again, leading to repeated attacks.

It is also the conclusion that "autumn and winter are the high incidence period of respiratory diseases in children".

If the yang in the baby's body is insufficient, the phlegm is endogenous, and the phlegm rises with the qi, which is blocked in the airway and committed to the lungs, leading to illness.

"Sanjiu Plaster" is based on the theory of "correspondence between man and nature", "deficiency can be supplemented", "warming channels to dispel cold" and "external treatment of internal diseases", and adopts traditional Chinese medicine with the effect of clearing away heat and dredging channels to carry out specific acupoint application treatment in "Sanjiu days".

This can achieve the effects of expelling wind and cold, warming lung and tonifying kidney, invigorating spleen and stomach, relieving cough and asthma, harmonizing viscera, supporting yang, preventing and treating diseases, and enhancing baby's immunity and resistance.

For example:

Babies with lung qi deficiency can easily lead to colds and coughs if they are not treated in time. The main symptoms are low cough voice and weakness in expectoration.

Then the treatment should be based on the principle of warming and moistening the lungs, adding Sanjiu Kechuan ointment to the food for clearing away lung heat and resolving phlegm, and applying it to Zhongshan point and bilateral Shu Fei points, which can relieve the symptoms very well.

"Sanjiu Patch", like "Sanfu Patch", is an important external application and health care therapy of traditional Chinese medicine.

Sticking the "Sanjiu Sticker" in winter is also to strengthen and consolidate the curative effect of sticking the "Dog Sticker" in summer, which is an effective continuation and supplement to the "Dog Sticker" and significantly improves the baby's immunity and adaptability to climate change.

Although "Sanjiu Sticker" can strengthen the body, not everyone and all common winter diseases can stick it.

1, apply and take points.

Traditional Chinese medicine pays attention to syndrome differentiation and treatment, and children should also choose points based on syndrome differentiation when applying it.

For children with deficiency of both spleen and lung, Shu Fei, Pishu, Shenque or Zhongyu should be selected to regulate the function of spleen and lung.

For children with cough, asthma and excessive phlegm, Zhongshan point and bilateral Shufei point should be selected. People with allergies can choose points such as Neiguan.

2. Application time

"Sanjiu stickers" are used from winter to the future. Apply it once a day, once every 7~ 10 days, and once every 3-5 days around September.

For babies from 6 months to 3 years old, apply it for about 1~ 1.5 hours; Babies aged 3-6 need about 2 hours, and babies over 6 need about 3 hours.

Observe every 20~30 minutes during the application process, and the time should not be too long, with no foaming as the degree, and the longest time should not exceed 6 hours.

3. Adhesion reaction

In the process of application, if the baby's skin appears fever/itching, slight redness, flushing, burning sensation, mild blisters and other phenomena, it is a normal reaction and will disappear automatically after application.

During the application period, we must pay strict attention to the baby's dietary taboos. Avoid spicy, cold and greasy food, as well as seafood, mutton and mushrooms, and drink plenty of water.

You can take a bath after 6 hours of application, but don't rub the application area hard. Soap and shower gel are not recommended. It is not suitable for swimming on the day of application.

Warm reminder: "Sanjiu Sticker" is not an immediate drug, and it needs long-term persistence to achieve certain curative effect. It is recommended to post it on time every dog days, three years and three days.
