How To Treat Thrush?

My child is 2 months old and has a lot of tongue. In the morning, I ate well, but if I did not fight for 2 days, I would eat less. At that time, the mouth of the breath was sour (like the taste of raw food). Please tell me if I should use nystatin to beat your tongue. (Tran Minh Thoa (Hai Duong)

Thrush is the white, fake membranes lining the oral mucosa, especially the upper surface of the tongue

. These membranes stick quite tightly to the mucosa, causing them to become entangled and painful, making it difficult for the child to swallow and to discomfort.
The main cause is Candida albicans, which usually occurs in weak children, especially premature infants. Sometimes when a mother has a vaginal yeast infection, a baby will get sick soon after birth
Germs can also come from rubber nipples, milk making equipment.



After the child has finished feeding, his / her oral hygiene is not good, the stagnant milk residues also ferment for a long time, creating conditions for Candida albicans to grow, causing thrush.
To treat thrush, people often tell each other how to wrap a clean piece of gauze in the tip of the index finger, soaked in honey to beat spitting. However, this method makes children sore because the fake membrane adheres to the mucosa. After the child has finished beating the tongue of the child, it is red and painful to suck. Besides, honey often contains toxins of a bacterium called clostridium botulium, which is toxic to neuromuscular and causes paralysis. So do not use honey to spitting.
Parents can use some methods to treat thrush at home such as vegetables, chives, green tea or physiological saline These are more benign foods than honey.



In case of applying these methods and still not recovering from thrush, mother can consult a doctor about the use of thrush medication.
Regarding medicines for treating thrush, mothers can give their children nystatin - an antifungal medication that has a specific effect on Candida albicans:
The duration of treatment is continuous for 7 days by mouth rinsing for the child;
Dosage: Sugar coated tablet of 500,000 units, each use 1/5 tablet mixed with 1ml of 0.9% NaCl saline or cooled cooked water. Then use a clean gauze around the index finger to pry the tongue for children..
