Patient's question:
My child is six months old now. The air is very good, and I want to take her out for some fresh air. However, I heard from a friend that babies are very afraid of the "four-six wind." It is said that if a six-month-old child catches the wind, they might have seizures. How is the "four-six wind" treated in infants?Doctor's answer:
Newborn infants, due to immature organ function (especially premature infants), have poor adaptability to the outside world and are sensitive to microorganisms such as bacteria or viruses, making them unsuitable for outdoor activities. After the baby is one month old, there have been significant improvements in various aspects of their physical development compared to birth. At this time, parents can take their children outdoors according to the situation. Therefore, this claim lacks scientific basis. The mortality rate from tetanus in children is high.
