How many children will have growing pains?

When my son was 3 years old, he suddenly called "leg pain" one night, which was around his left knee. I checked and found no redness and bruises caused by bumps. I asked my son if he had ever fallen, but he said no, but he still cried with his knees in his arms. I wrapped the hot water bottle with a towel and put it on my son's left leg knee. After half an hour of hot compress, my son said it didn't hurt. In fact, the general parenting books have related contents about children's growing pains. Parents often take their children to the hospital to complain about leg pain, but after the doctor's examination, the children have no abnormal signs. In addition, X-ray photos, blood tests, laboratory tests of calcium, phosphorus, alkaline phosphatase and rheumatoid factors are all normal. At this time, the doctor will tell the parents that the child's leg pain belongs to the child's growth pain. Children's growth pain refers to the pain of limbs or joints that children often have unexplained, short-lived, intermittent and can be relieved by themselves during their growth and development. Its manifestations are mostly in the soft tissue muscles and tendons near the joints of lower limbs, which are relatively fixed and do not swim. The cause of growth pain is not clear in all kinds of medical books. Some people think that children's bones grow rapidly during their growth and development, but the surrounding nerves, muscles and tendons can't grow at the corresponding speed, so they have traction pain. Others think that children are naive, tireless and active. A large number of activities at night will inevitably lead to the accumulation of acidic metabolites (such as lactic acid) and muscle aches. This is why Growing Pains always breaks out at dusk and disappears in the morning. When the child matures, the pain of growing up will disappear, which will not affect the health of the body and does not require special treatment. But a few days later, my son complained that his left leg hurt at night, and it was still the same place. I applied it with a hot water bottle again, and it soon stopped hurting. Considering that my son's symptoms are the same as those described in the book, there should be nothing to worry about, but it always hurts like this, and the child is very painful. How can a mother not feel bad when she looks at her son and holds her knees when he shouts pain? How can you do nothing as described in the book? I carefully recalled the pain in my son's legs. The first time was after taking anti-inflammatory drugs for a cold and cough, and the second time was after eating bananas in kindergarten. This shows that the causes of leg pain in children are actually the same as those in adults, both of which are caused by heavy cold and dampness in the body. Knowing the cause, you will naturally know how to prevent and treat it. To cope with cold and dampness, you can give your child more warm food and try to avoid letting your child sit directly on the ground. When children go to kindergarten, their diet should be adjusted according to the food they eat in kindergarten. If the food he eats in kindergarten is cold during the day, he should be given sea fish, shrimp, beef and mutton at night. Most of the food eaten in kindergarten during the day is flat, and he is given pork, chicken and so on at night. After this adjustment, my son complained less and less about his leg pain. A mother, if she carefully observes and pays attention to the details of life after her child is ill, can completely turn passivity into initiative, take precautions and keep her child away from the disease. It is common for children to sweat a lot and eat unreasonably. It is common for babies to sweat while sleeping or doing light activities. In the pediatric clinic of the hospital, there are many babies who come to see a doctor because of excessive sweating. Only a few of them suffer from rickets, tuberculosis and mild anemia, and most of them can't find other symptoms. The doctor will tell you that the child is not ill and does not need treatment. This is just normal physiological sweating. First, what is the normal physiological sweating of children? Sweat is secreted by sweat glands on the skin, of which 99% is water and 1% is salt, so when sweat flows into the mouth, we will taste that sweat is salty. Hot weather, high room temperature, too many clothes and quilts, too many calories in the body (such as after eating high-calorie food), or after strenuous exercise, the human body will sweat. Sweating at this time is a process in which the body adjusts its body temperature in time, takes away excess heat and discharges some metabolic wastes, such as urea and lactic acid, which belongs to normal physiological sweating. Children often sweat more than adults because of their vigorous metabolism and liveliness, and their skin contains a lot of water and microvessels, especially the water evaporated from the skin. At the same time, the baby's nervous system development is not perfect enough. Sympathetic nerve, which manages the secretion of sweat glands, loses control of the brain during sleep (mainly just after falling asleep), and is prone to temporary excitement, which is characterized by sweating more, but the sweat gradually fades after falling asleep. In addition to sweating, the child's mental state is not bad, his appetite is normal, his growth and development are good, and his physical examination is completely up to standard. It belongs to children's physiological sweating and does not need treatment. With the increase of age, the amount of sweating of children will gradually decrease. Second, the child pathological sweating 1. Rickets: In addition to sweating, such children often show irritability, crying, restless sleep, easy to wake up, sweating, itchy head, and the head often rubs against the pillow, making the hair on the back of the head fall off, forming the characteristics of "pillow baldness". This is an early symptom of rickets. If not treated in time and further developed, there will be skull softening, square head, large fontanel and late closure, beading of costal cartilage and chicken breast in the chest, X-shaped legs or O-shaped legs in the legs after walking, and children's disease resistance is poor, and they are prone to colds, pneumonia and tracheitis. 2. Tuberculosis: This is a chronic infectious disease. Symptoms are not obvious at first, and may even be missed by doctors. Once the symptoms are obvious, the disease will develop more seriously. The sweating of these children is mainly "night sweats", not only after falling asleep, but also after midnight and before dawn, accompanied by symptoms such as low fever, poor spirit, loss of appetite, weight loss and long eyelashes. 3. Weakness: Children with malnutrition, anemia, intestinal parasite infection and other diseases are often accompanied by symptoms such as fatigue, listlessness, pale face, sparse hair and loss of appetite. Third, the child sweats but has no special discomfort. Children tend to sweat when they sleep and exercise, but their growth and development are normal. Most parents of such children took their children to see a doctor, which ruled out the above diseases. Although there is no need for treatment, sweating too much is always worrying. According to my observation, in addition to children's hyperhidrosis caused by excessive dressing and covering, diet is also directly related to perspiration. Today's children no longer have to worry about malnutrition, but should pay attention to fish and shrimp with overnutrition and high calories. Many children eat it almost every day. Fish and shrimp are fresh and tender, and babies love them. At the same time, parents think that fish and shrimp are more nutritious than other meats, so they always encourage their babies to eat more. In addition, for children with incomplete teeth arrangement, fish and shrimp are more likely to be chewed, while other meats and vegetables cannot be chewed completely. In the process of swallowing, children are prone to choking, and after choking several times, children are unwilling to eat any more. There is a folk saying that "fish makes a fire, meat produces phlegm, and green vegetables and tofu keep peace." Eating too much fish and shrimp will inevitably lead to excessive internal heat. Children with excessive internal heat will show the following characteristics: 1. Children are particularly prone to sweating, often sweating all over during the day and getting wet with clothes or quilts at night. 2. Because of anger and energy, children are full of energy, playing all day, tireless and energetic. 3. Some children lose body fluid due to a lot of sweating, which can be manifested as dry lips, fever in hands and feet, dry mouth and thirst. Some children have dry stools at a young age, and it is very difficult and difficult to defecate every time, leading to anal fissure. 4. Children who get angry seriously have a bad temper, irritability, inattention and poor self-control. 5. Because of excessive sweating, body fluids are lost, water in the body is reduced, and some children have dark skin. 6. Children get angry easily because they are angry. When they catch a cold, children are prone to high fever and are often accompanied by tonsillitis. 7. This angry child is also prone to nosebleeds. Some children have almost every symptom listed above, and some children have only a few of them. In fact, most of them are directly related to improper diet. If this is the case for your child, try the following methods: 1. First stop eating fish and shrimp 1 ~ 2 weeks, eat other meats, such as pork, chicken, duck and beef, and eat more vegetables. Observe for a period of time to see if the amount of perspiration will be significantly reduced due to the change of diet. If the amount of sweating of children is obviously reduced by controlling fish and shrimp, then parents should change their children's eating habits, mainly meat and vegetables, supplemented by fish and shrimp, and eat them once a week. Children in love sweating eat less fish and shrimp in summer and twice a week in winter. After the diet changes, the child's anger will become smaller, sweating will naturally decrease, and other related symptoms will gradually be alleviated or alleviated. 2. For children who get angry, parents can rub their children's ankles before going to bed and after washing their feet every night, and gently rub them up and down, 50 times on each foot, which can play the role of nourishing yin and reducing fire. There is a two-year-old boy. Because his parents feed fish soup and shrimp every day, he often has toothache, tonsillitis and pinkeye at a young age. The couple's skin is very white, but the son is black and thin. The child is full of energy and vitality. He plays crazy every day, often sweating all over. In order to prevent him from catching a cold, his parents should always change clothes and dry the quilt every day, which makes him exhausted. Later, my parents took my advice, changed their children's diet, strictly controlled the amount of fish and shrimp, and only allowed to eat once a week. Results After three weeks, the child showed obvious changes, his skin turned white and fat, and he sweated a lot less. They are not as impatient as before, they can calm down, and they no longer have toothache and sore throat. Therefore, parents should pay attention to the reasonable collocation of various nutrients in their children's diet, and they should not let their children have a partial eclipse. They must eat more vegetables to ensure that their children's stools are unobstructed, which is conducive to their healthy growth. Children who are weak, anaemic and repeatedly ill often keep sweating. Such a child is sweating due to deficiency of qi. They often have a bad appetite, don't want to move more, don't talk much, and are introverted. Some children are fat in vain, while others are sallow and emaciated. Parents can adopt the following dietotherapy methods to help their children regulate the spleen and stomach, increase nutrition and replenish qi and blood. 1. Children with weak spleen and stomach can't eat cold drinks. Most fruits are cool, so try to eat as little as possible and try not to eat in winter. Try to make all kinds of food rotten, soft or chopped, which can reduce the burden of children's gastrointestinal tract and facilitate the digestion and absorption of food. As long as the food you eat is nutritious and can be absorbed by your child, your child's physique will gradually increase and sweating will decrease. 2. For black and thin children with poor appetite, parents can buy one or two pieces of chicken's gizzard-membrane in a Chinese medicine shop, grind them into powder with a pulverizer, take a teaspoon, add half a teaspoon of brown sugar, put them into a bowl, pour a small amount of boiling water, and give them half an hour before meals, 1 ~ 2 times a day. 3. Loach soup: Take 3-4 loaches, wash them, fry them in an oil pan until they are slightly yellow, then add water and a little onion and salt. Misgurnus anguillicaudatus can tonify qi deficiency, warm spleen and stomach, and stop sweating. Suitable for children with body weakness, spleen and stomach weakness, malnutrition and night sweats. Children can eat 2 ~ 3 times a week, which is helpful for growth and development. 4. Parents can make yam porridge, yam soup or steamed yam for their children. Yam can strengthen the spleen, nourish the kidney and nourish the stomach, which is suitable for children with excessive sweating. 5. Eating Guyuan ointment specially made for children, 1 ~ 2 times, once and a half spoonfuls, can also stop sweating. The above five points are also applicable to children with rickets and tuberculosis. It's cold in winter, but don't "warm" your baby. My sister's daughter was born more than 20 years ago, but her family won't bathe the baby, so I go to my sister's house to bathe my newborn niece after work every day. One day, I saw my sister crying when I entered the door, saying that my daughter had a fever and didn't know what to do, waiting for me to come back and deal with it. I went to the bed and saw my little niece lying on the bed, covered with two thick quilts. Her face was red and her head was very hot, and she sweated when she touched it with her hands. My sister told me that my temperature is 38.3℃. I opened the quilt and found the child wearing thick cotton-padded clothes and trousers with a thermos bottle under his feet. Although it was winter at that time, there was a stove at home to keep warm, and the room temperature was not low. Looking at everything in front of me, I concluded that the child's fever should belong to sultry syndrome. This is because the baby wears too much and the quilt is too tight, forming a small environment with high fever and hypoxia around the baby's body. After a long time, the baby will have the phenomenon of "heatstroke". When the baby is in this high temperature environment for a long time, he has to sweat a lot to dissipate heat, so there will be high fever, sweating, dehydration and even blood circulation failure in severe cases. Every winter, there are reports that babies die of excessive "sultry". I told my sister that the child had a fever. I took off my child's quilt, unbuttoned my cotton trousers, ventilated and cooled my child, and fed him more warm water. In less than half an hour, her little face stopped blushing and her body was not so hot. When taking her temperature, it was 37.5℃. When the child stops sweating, give her a hot bath and feed her, and the child will fall asleep quietly. At this time, the body temperature was measured again, and it has dropped to 36.8℃, which is completely normal. The infant's body temperature control system is not well developed, and the body temperature is greatly influenced by the changes of the external environment. Babies can't speak to express their feelings, so young parents must learn some knowledge about baby health care. When the cold winter comes, you can't let your child catch cold or keep warm too much, which leads to "heatstroke" in winter. The easiest way to know whether a child is wearing too much or covering too much is to touch his little hand. If your hands are cold, it means that you are wearing too little clothes or covering too little, so add more. If the child's little hands are warm and sweaty, they must be wearing too much or covering too much. It is necessary to subtract some in time until the small hand is warm and sweaty, which means it is just right. Besides, mother and baby should sleep separately. If the baby is held by his mother to sleep, his head will often be covered in a quilt. Due to the barrier of bedding or clothes, the baby is in a limited breathing space, which is easy to lead to hypoxia. Moreover, the temperature in the quilt is high, the time is long, and it is easy to have a high fever and sweat, and even life-threatening. One more thing, don't put towels and other items on the child's head when he is sleeping. Some parents are afraid that their children will be frozen, and they will cover their children inside and outside, even the baby's head. Most babies wear hats when they sleep in winter. Parents should pay attention that the hat must not be too big. The baby is active and often turns his head. If the hat is too big, it will cover the child's nose and mouth. In addition, don't put towels or clothes on the child's head. When a child's little hand moves, it will cover your face and your nose and mouth, causing danger.

If the baby is still fine during the day, he will sweat, have a high fever, turn purple and have dull eyes when he wakes up at night, which is mostly caused by wearing too many clothes, covering his head with a thick quilt or sleeping. At this time, parents should not panic. First, move the baby out of the bed and put it in a place with fresh air to improve the baby's hypoxia. If the baby has high fever symptoms at the same time, you can undress, reduce the package, wipe the sweat or take a bath with warm water, change wet clothes, or put an ice pad on the baby's headrest to help dissipate heat, cool down, reduce metabolism and protect the brain. Pay attention to proper warmth during the whole operation, replenish water and feed warm water to the baby in time. After taking these emergency measures, if the baby's symptoms are still not relieved, he should be sent to the hospital immediately for further diagnosis and treatment. In addition, please remember that parents should not blindly give their children antipyretics to prevent high fever caused by this situation, so as to avoid children sweating more, aggravating dehydration and worsening their condition.
