Can babies use the Sanfu plaster?

Everyone knows the many benefits of Sanfutie, but it is not suitable for everyone. First of all, those who suffer from bronchial asthma should never use Sanfutie even if they are in the attack period, otherwise it will cause greater harm. In addition, people with pneumonia should not use Sanfutie if the disease is in an acute attack. So can younger babies use Sanfutie?

Can children apply Sanfu plaster?

Although Sanfutie is very effective in preventing the recurrence of some basic diseases and has fewer side effects, it is not a panacea and is not suitable for everyone. If the Yang Qi in the body is already excessive, applying the Sanfu plaster will further disrupt the balance of Yin and Yang. Therefore, not all winter diseases are suitable for plastering, and patients are advised to go to a specialist for examination before applying the plaster.

More and more parents bring their children to apply the plaster, and the "Sanfu Plaster" does have the effect of improving children's resistance. Children have clear internal organs and thin and tender skin, so the Sanfu plaster is more effective than that for adults. Preschool children aged 2 to 6 years old, in particular, should seize the opportunity once a year to adjust their bodies early. However, it is not suitable for children under 2 years old to apply the patch because their skin is too delicate and they may not be able to tolerate the stimulation of the drug. At the same time, children are too young to know how to express the discomfort they may feel after the patch, which will also affect the safety of the treatment.

How long should the “Sanfutie” be applied?

The application time varies with the age of the child and should be gradually extended according to the age. For babies under 6 years old, the medication should be applied for 2-4 hours. The specific application time depends on the baby's skin reaction, while taking into account the baby's physique and tolerance. If the baby feels obvious discomfort at the application site, parents can remove it on their own.

One course of treatment is 3 years of continuous application. After the treatment, you can continue to apply the patch to consolidate or improve the therapeutic effect.

Precautions for children to apply Sanfu plaster

There are some small details that are easy to overlook before and after the application of Sanfu stickers for children. Here are some issues that children should pay attention to when applying Sanfu stickers:

Before application: care for your skin, avoid spicy food, and consult.

First of all, you need to maintain a regular schedule and eat a light diet. It is best to avoid spicy and cold foods for 1-2 weeks, smoke less and drink less to avoid weakening the efficacy of the medicine;

Secondly, pay attention to protecting and cleaning the skin, especially the skin where the acupoints are applied. The day before applying the patch, take a bath with a mild bath product to remove the oil on the skin surface;

Finally, if you find that the skin at the acupoint is broken before application, or if you have symptoms of acute infection such as fever, headache, diarrhea and vomiting, you need to postpone the first application. In addition, if a woman has heavy bleeding during menstruation, the application of the patch can be postponed appropriately.

When applying: wear loose clothing to prevent allergies.

It is best to wear loose, breathable, comfortable and sweat-absorbent cotton clothing when applying the patch. To prevent the ointment from staining your clothes, it is best to wear dark-colored clothes on the day. If you have allergic symptoms, be sure to tell your doctor before applying the patch and use a hypoallergenic tape instead.

After application: Reduce exercise and try to avoid sweating to prevent the patch from falling off.

You will feel hot after applying the patch and you can stay in a cool place, but don't be too greedy for coolness. Do not enter an air-conditioned room with very low temperature immediately to prevent the cold from shrinking the pores and affecting the absorption of the drug. Do not blow the fan or air conditioner directly at the application area.
