FLU SEASON IS APPROACHING AGAIN, AND WE ARE HAPPY TO LET YOU KNOW THAT WE HAVE SOME OF OUR VACCINES ALREADY AVAILABLE. THE AMERICAN ACADEMY OF PEDIATRICS NOW RECOMMENDS THAT ALL CHILDREN OVER THE AGE OF 6 MONTHS RECEIVE THE VACCINE EACH YEAR. THERE IS AN EFFECTIVE NASAL SPRAY FORM FOR MOST CHILDREN OVER THE AGE OF TWO YEARS OLD WITH A FEW EXCEPTIONS. YOU CAN REQUEST THE VACCINE WHILE HERE WITH YOUR CHILD FOR THEIR CHECK UP OR YOU CAN CALL FOR AN APPOINTMENT. AS THE NEW SCHOOL YEAR GETS UNDER WAY AND ACTIVITIES START TO BACK UP AGAIN, WE WOULD LIKE TO REMIND YOU THAT YOUR CHILD WILL BENEFIT NOT ONLY FROM THEIR ACTIVITIES BUT ALSO FROM TIME AT HOME WITH THE FAMILY. REGULAR SLEEP SCHEDULES, CHORES AND HOME RESPONSIBILITIES, PLAY TIME AND FAMILY MEALS ALL HELP TO CONTRIBUTE TO THE PSYCHOLOGICAL WELL-BEING AND STABILITY OF YOUR CHILDREN. DURING THE FALL AND WINTER, HEALTHY CHILDREN CAN DEVELOP AN AVERAGE OF SIX TO EIGHT COLDS. CHILDREN UNDER TWO OR THOSE IN DAY CARE USUALLY GET MORE. COLD VIRUSES ARE SPREAD BY HAND CONTACT, COUGHING AND SNEEZING, NOT BE COLD AIR DRAFTS, SO AVOID UNDUE EXPOSURE OF BABIES TO PEOPLE WITH COLDS. HAND WASHING IS A VERY IMPORTANT FACTOR IN REDUCING THE SPREAD OF VIRUSES THAT CAUSE COLDS. A COLD IS A VIRAL INFECTION OF THE NOSE AND THROAT WHICH CAN CAUSE A CLEAR YELLOW-GREEN RUNNY NOSE AND COUGH LASTING UP TO TEN DAYS. FEVER CAN OCCUR WITH A COLD, BUT USUALLY LASTS ONLY TWO TO THREE DAYS. IF YOUR CHILD HAS A PERSISTENT FEVER FOR GREATER THAN THREE DAYS, RUNNY NOSE FOR MORE THAN TENS DAYS, THICK DRAINAGE FROM EYES, EARACHE, OR DIFFICULTY BREATHING, PLEASE CALL OUR OFFICE IMMEDIATELY. Company Tenafly Pediatrics Music: Elegance Voice: Bobbin Date: 8/27/2009 Word Count: 439 AT THIS TIME IT IS IMPOSSIBLE TO PREDICT WHAT IS GOING TO HAPPEN WITH SWINE FLU, BUT ONE THING IS CLEAR –PANIC, FEAR AND ANY KIND OF OVERREACTI ONI SN’ TGOING TO BE HELPFUL. SO WHAT SHOULD YOU DO? YOU CAN TRY TO AVOID THE SWINE FLU BY ENCOURAGING YOUR CHILDREN TO WASH THEIR HANDS OFTEN, TELL THEM TO AVOID TOUCHING THEIR EYES, NOSE AND MOUTH, AND OBVIOUSLY AVOID PEOPLE WHO ARE SICK. IF YOUR CHILD EXHIBITS FLU SYMPTOMS SUCH AS A HIGH FEVER, MUSCLE ACHES AND PAINS, WEAKNESS AND TIREDNESS, HEADACHE, DRY COUGH, SORE THROAT, STUFFY OR RUNNY NOSE, NAUSEA, VOMITING OR DIARRHEA PLEASE CALL OUR OFFICE FOR AN APPOINTMENT OR FURTHER ADVICE. ALSO, ALWAYS KEEP SICK CHILDREN AWAY FROM OTHER PEOPLE UNTIL THEY HAVE RECOVERED FROM THEIR ILLNESS. YOURCHI LD’ SHEALTHIS PRECIOUS, AND THAT’ SWHYWELL-CHILD VISITS ARE SO IMPORTANT. WE USE THESE VISITS TO MONITOR GROWTH AND DEVELOPMENT, KEEP IMMUNIZATIONS UP TO DATE, AND SCREEN FOR A WIDE VARIETY OF MEDICAL PROBLEMS. AT TENAFLY PEDIATRICS, WE RECOMMEND WELL-CHILD VISITS BETWEEN BIRTH AND AGE THREE. AFTER, AGE THREE, YOUR CHILD SHOULD BE EXAMINED ONCE A YEAR. WE APPRECIATE YOUR COOPERATION IN KEEPING YOUR CHILD ON A REGULAR SCHEDULE FOR PREVENTIVE CARE. IF YOU THINK THAT YOUR CHILD MAY BE DUE FOR A WELLCHILD VISIT, LET US KNOW WHEN WE RETURN TO THE LINE. IS IT A COLD OR THE FLU? THE SYMPTOMS OF THE FLU, GENERALLY, MAKE A CHILD FEEL WORSE THAN SYMPTOMS ASSOCIATED WITH THE COMMON COLD. HOWEVER, SOMETIMES IT IS NOT EASY TO TELL THE DIFFERENCE. HERE IS A SIMPLE GUIDE FOR SYMPTOMS OF THE FLU: THE ONSET OF THE FLU USUALLY SUDDEN AND YOUR CHILD MAY HAVE A HIGH FEVER. YOUR CHILD MAY EXPERIENCE A DRY COUGH ACCOMPANIED BY A SORE THROAT AND MAY FEEL ACHY ALL OVER. CHILDREN WHO HAVE THE FLU MAY EXPERIENCE LOSS OF APPETITE, SEVERE EXHAUSTION AND CHILLS.
