Your kid is prone to multiple allergies and infections apart from learning and fun when he gets back to school. Spring allergies, red eye, strep throat, cold, cough are some of the common threats which your child may encounter during the initial days.

Young children might forget the rules of cleanliness when they are playing or interacting with other peers. Here are some common precautions that you can take to tackle back to school infections:

1. Remind your child of cleanliness and personal hygiene
2. Ask them not to share any personal items with others and keep contact minimal
3. Let them wash their hands with during the breaks or disinfect the hands using a hand sanitizer
4. Pack them healthy food and snacks particularly fresh fruits that boost their immunity and metabolism
5. Clean their water bottles and lunch boxes with soap and water
6. Change the tooth brush every three months or after they recover from any fever
7. Let the child rest a lot ten to twelve hours of sleep that can reboot their energy levels for the next day
8. If you notice any infection or allergy, supply them with enough rest and medication
9. If needed, let the child stay at home for a day until the allergy reduces
10. Give the child allergy medicine or cold medicine for three days

If the infection persists more than a week, it is better to contact the paediatrician as they might suggest the correct antibiotics to treat the infection.

Back to school learning might be fun, but the allergies and infections hinder the child’s interest to get back to school and work. 🙂
