Do not forget that the thrush should be treated only under the closer attention of doctors. So it will be possible to choose qualified help and for mom, and for her newborn baby. Remember that the child is still very sensitive to the outside world, as its immunity has not yet been formed.
Candidiasis in newborns
Despite the fact that such a disease as candidiasis is not a venereal disease that is transmitted by sexually, doctors often consider it because of the similarity of symptoms together with a group of diseases transmitted during intercourse. Candidiasis is a fungal disease of the genitour. What is noteworthy, mostly fungus Candida meets in women, but his carriers are most often a man.
In the newly born babies, candidiasis proceeds completely in other than in adults. For example, a woman's fungus Candida calls only vaginal candidiasis, and a man - fungal balanopostitis. As for the baby, he has this fungus in the oral cavity - the tongue, almonds and generally mucous mouth are amazed.
Most often when the baby has candidiasis in the oral cavity, experts call it «Candidomicose stomatitis». Very, very rare in newborn girls, Candida fungus can strike genital organs and provoke the development of vulvit.
Do not forget the fact that Candida is more accurate, the fungi of this kind - there are all healthy people: they are constant satellites of human microflora. In the event that immunity does not cause concerns, the number of fungi is preserved at one level. Otherwise, when a person has a favorable environment for the development of fungi, infection is multiplied by turning the microflora from benign - into the pathogenic.
Causes and signs of the disease
Symptoms of candidiasis in children are specific, immediately cast.
- White Flaw in Language. This is the most important sign of the starting thrush. If the baby in the mouth, instead of the usual familiar plaque, plaques of a white color, a curl of a flare or just a white bloom on the whole mucous membrane appeared, there is all the bases to suspect candidiasis. First, the thrush arises from the foci, and then can cover all the mucous membrane - not to allow its growing one of the main tasks.
- Flaw on the inner surfaces of the cheek. Thrush does not necessarily begins «from language». Candidiasis may appear on the gums, and the sky, on the inner surfaces of the cheek, on the almonds. Clinical picture is the same - blooming color.
Remember that it is impossible to remove the emerging flare, which gives candidiasis independently. The thing is that kids have a very sensitive mucosa - it can be accidentally damaged. The foci of the raid can be injured, because of which a small wound is formed - it can bleed and annoy the baby, bringing him discomfort and pain.
Treatment of children's candidiasis
Before starting some treatment, it is necessary to consult with an experienced doctor - he will be able to diagnose the disease and appoint adequate comprehensive treatment. If the thrush just begins - the mother has noticed the symptoms early, and the doctors determined the disease in the early stages, then the child will not be difficult.
In the event that the disease has already passed the first stage and moved to the launched stage, the disease can manifest themselves in different ways. For example, Candidiasis of the skin, intestines or conjunctivitis will begin - if the fungus is affected by the mucous eye.
Candidose treatment must be carried out safe for newborn drugs that are completely non-toxic for a baby. Cannot be used for newborns systemic antibiotics.
Most often use such funds that fit the mother, which feeds the baby, and her child. For Treatment of thrush In this case, prescribe «Nystatin», «Diflucan», «Candidium solution».
The most harder is the bowel candidiasis.
Folk treatments
Folk treatments should be most likely auxiliary, not the main. In the treatment of candidiasis, it is necessary to do it precisely on medicines. But with the consent of the doctor, carefully, not to cause allergies, you can try at home the old ways offered by grandmothers.
The most basic way to treat candidiasis «From the people» - This is a solution of soda. In the glass you need to divide a spoon (tea) of ordinary drinking soda. Then to the finger to wind a piece of gauze or bandage and, maminating it in the solution, wipe the caulter of the mouth: the inner surface of the cheek, gum, language. This procedure must be performed every two or three hours.
What will help soda? First, it removes the whiten flare, and secondly, changes the acid-alkaline balance in the oral cavity - it helps to change the pathogenicity of microflora.
Another people's way of treatment of candidiasis is strong Infusion Calendula (flowers). They also need as a soda solution, wipe the oral cavity. Calendula can be replaced by sage, chamomile or eucalyptus, or other medicinal herbs that have anti-inflammatory and antibacterial properties. But it is necessary to try this therapy carefully, since there is a possibility of developing an allergic reaction.
Prevention of candidiasis
In principle, it is much more important, not to treat candidiasis, but to do everything possible to prevent it. How to do it? First of all, MyMedinform.COM recommends that personal hygiene observe and try to strengthen immunity in every way. Remember that Candida's fungus loves a warm and wet environment - it is in it that it slows down perfectly. This type of fungus «settle down» mainly in the folds of the skin, especially «loves» those places where the natural allocations of the body fall. That is why it is very important to bathe the baby daily and monitor its intimate hygiene, for example, to focus before each diaper replacement.
Remember that candidiasis is a very unpleasant disease for the baby, since in addition to the general discomfort, there is a possibility that infectious diseases will occur in the infectious disease due to lowering immunity, or candidiasis of the skin or intestines will appear.
Children who develop thrush is very often thrown to suck the chest, which is very harmful to the newborn, since the nutritional impairment is very harmful to crumbs.
