A NOTE FROM SCHOOL NURSE
Fever and Your Child
As a poor boy, when I was growing up, receiving health care was a struggle for my parents.
I only get it when things are very serious. So often, I was just told to sleep it off. There are good and bad things about this response.
Thankfully, my amazing body had to do all the work. Yes, our body will suffer some symptoms, but we have a strong immune system that, if well nourished and immunized, will fight off the germs that enter our body. It just requires patience and well-timed symptom management. This can be done via home remedies or medicine.
Yet, to try managing a child’s symptoms via medicine in advance so that they can be “well” will not help them in the long run. For adults, there is little choice since we have responsibilities, but for young children, it is not healthy to use medicine when their bodies do not need it.
Managing symptoms this way is like masking an illness that may require proper treatment, and it will cause medicinal tolerance, and the body never gets the chance to exercise its strength to fight the infection.
Like building muscles, the immune system improves as you let it do the work. You can give vitamin C to boost the immune system if your daily food choice does not have it.
And finally, you can keep a child healthy via good nourishment, adequate sleep, hydration, daily exercise, and good hygiene.
