Patient's question:
My child is three years and nine months old. Since they were one year and eight months, they have been sick almost every month, taking medicine almost every day! They often have purulent tonsillitis with fever, sometimes bronchitis with coughing, or colds! Watching my child have to be given intravenous fluids and medicine every time, as a mother, I feel extremely heartbroken and helpless! What should I do if my child keeps getting sick? What should I eat to boost my child's immunity?Doctor's answer:
Resistance is the ability to fight off diseases, such as the ability to combat bacteria and viruses. To enhance resistance, the human body must have been exposed to these viruses and bacteria in order to produce additional antibodies. Of course, it doesn't mean that one must have encountered all viruses to have antibodies. Currently, the main method to enhance resistance is vaccination: if a child has low immunity and tends to get sick easily, it is necessary to encourage more physical exercise to strengthen their physical fitness.
