Health Reminders
We are now entering into the spring allergy season. This is a difficult time for many students and symptoms can make your children miserable in the classroom. Symptoms may include: runny nose, sneezing, coughing, red itchy eyes, stuffy nose, sinus pressure, headaches, sore throat, ear pressure, tiredness.
If your child has had seasonal allergies in the past, now is a good time to start daily allergy medications before the symptoms start. If your child starts exhibiting allergy symptoms, please consult with their doctor to see if a daily allergy medication and/or nasal spray is recommended. There are many over the counter medications, so it is very important that you work with your pediatrician to make sure your child’s allergies are correctly diagnosed and symptoms properly treated. Do not ignore any persistent or worsening symptoms, particularly breathing conditions. And while symptoms of allergies and colds often overlap, a fever is not a symptom of an allergy.
Some helpful tips:
-Teach your children how to blow their noses frequently. -The mucus from a post nasal drip or from sniffing causes sore throats, coughing, and stomach aches
-Wash their face and hands after spending time outside to remove pollen; have them shower each night to remove pollen from their hair. Remove and wash clothing that your children have worn outside
-Gargle with warm salt water to help relieve a sore throat
-Use air conditioning when possible and keep windows closed
-Stay indoors when pollen counts are high
-Drink more water! Stay hydrated
Additional Parent’s Guide for the Flu can be found on the CDC website: https://www.cdc.gov/flu/pdf/freeresources/family/flu-guide-for-parents-2018.pdf
When to keep your child home from school:
-Fever 100 degrees or higher. Children should not come back to school until the temperature is normal for 24 hours without medication.
-vomiting or diarrhea (within the past 24 hours)
-a frequent cough that won’t stop or other problems with breathing
-any rash accompanied by a fever
-sore throat with a fever and/or rash
