What is the benefit of frequent colds?

Frequent childhood colds, what could be worse? But, to the surprise of many parents, they also have benefits.
Most children get colds or acute respiratory viral infections about 6-8 times a year in the first three years of life, regardless of the level of development of the country in which they live. In large cities, children get sick more often - about 10 times a year. When a child goes to kindergarten, he gets even more sick there, because he is faced with a lot of new infections. By school, having retained immunity from previous illnesses, children face colds less often. Unlike children at home, who stayed at home for the first seven years of their lives, but after entering school, they start to get sick all the time.

If the child has not been tempered since birth, he will get sick more often, since during the cold it is easier for the virus to enter the body of this baby. Children with enlarged adenoids and tonsils are also prone to frequent colds. A child who lives with smoking parents is three to six times more likely to get sick. Allergic children do not have strong immunity to diseases, so they regularly catch the virus, and they may develop allergies against the background of colds. If your child is sick, you should not give him an antipyretic every time when the temperature is very low. With frequent use of paracetamol, immunity decreases and the disease comes again and again.

It is almost impossible not to get sick while living in a densely populated city and having dozens of contacts with people per day. When viruses enter the body, they teach our immune system to produce IgG antibodies, which help us recover from infection. If there is no such training, the body produces few antibodies that fight the disease, and gives unnecessary antibodies, which cause allergies.

In studies conducted back in the 80s, it was proved that children in the West are more likely to suffer from asthma. This was due to the fact that in social countries parents used to send their child to a nursery or kindergarten, where he suffered more colds, thus protecting himself from asthma. Often suffering from acute respiratory viral infections, children strengthened their immunity. The scientists' conclusions were also confirmed in Arizona. After many years of observation of babies who were in a nursery from the age of six months, it was found that these children had asthma 3 times less often than children who did not attend kindergarten.

From the above, it is not necessary to conclude that a child who is often ill is very good and should not be treated. But we must remember that colds are not a tragedy, and children who do not have SARS have not yet been found.
