Some illnesses are not accompanied by such overt symptoms as to worry parents.
Pediculosis (lice)
Many people think that this disease occurs in children who live in poor conditions. But on the contrary - the cleaner the head, the easier it is for lice to stay on the hair. At the same time, lice can be picked up anywhere in the congestion of children - and this is a very common problem.
Head lice is not always accompanied by itching, which complicates the diagnosis. If your child is in children's rooms, circles, goes to kindergarten or school, then the head for lice should be carefully examined at least once a week - before washing it, for example.
Worms
As doctors say, worms, one way or another, are present in all children. Only not all are clearly manifested. What are the symptoms? Problems with digestion, weakness, pallor - obviously, with such a picture, the problem of worms does not come to mind first?
And if a child's anus itches at night, he may simply be embarrassed to tell or not understand what needs to be reported.Ideally, it is necessary to be tested for an ovarian leaf regularly, if the child even just plays on the street.
Caries
It is easy to miss it without a professional examination, because usually parents decide to take their child to the doctor only when the problem is visible to the naked eye - that is, it is running. If the child already has a toothache, then the moment is missed.Therefore, a visit to the dentist at least once every six months is mandatory.
