Back-to-School Health Tips
Pediatric Chiropractic
During the back-to-school season, students are exposed to significantly more germs. As a result, the new school year may have you wondering how to keep your children safe and healthy. Unfortunately, germs can't always be prevented entirely, so here are some health tips to fight germs and build immunity.
Health Tip #1: Make Handwashing a Habit.
The typical kid is a busybody and does not like to spend much time doing mundane chores such as washing their hands. Therefore, make it a habit at home to wash your hands properly. Whenever you cough or sneeze, and when you come inside, wash your hands—turning handwashing into a habit rather than a chore is the first step to fighting germs and building immunity.
Health Tip #2: Educate Your Children About Germs.
Despite the health tip above, not everybody follows it, and their kids' hands are covered with germs. For example, germs can thrive on many surfaces in schools, with many children touching desks and doorknobs. Therefore, if your child touches a shared space, it is best to teach them to wash their hands immediately and avoid touching their faces.
Health Tip #3: Know When to Take a Sick Day.
Being sick includes fever, coughing, and congestion, which means your child should stay at home until they feel better. Unfortunately, you're not only fighting germs for your child but others. To determine if they can return to school, it is best to consult with a doctor.
Health Tip #4: Start Your Back-To-School Health at Home.
Healthy lifestyles at home will boost you and your child's immune system. Playing outside, eating a healthy diet full of fruits and vegetables, and sleeping 7 to 9 hours daily can help you achieve this.
