Question
At first, I thought the child had an oral ulcer, so I took her to the hospital for a check-up. The doctor said she had thrush. How should I treat my child’s thrush?
Answer
When your child has thrush, you should pay attention to the following points: Children’s oral ulcers are often caused by viral infections, so antiviral treatment should be chosen with virazole spray. In addition, you can give your child ice and borax, as boric acid powder has a cooling and detoxifying effect, which can effectively alleviate thrush. At the same time, make sure to keep your child well-hydrated and maintain good oral hygiene.
