Girl paralyzed by a kiss mother kisses causes herpes virus

for many mothers, there is a habit of kissing their children. But recently, the news exposed that a little girl was infected with herpes virus because she was kissed by her mother at birth, and she was paralyzed in the bed. So don't kiss her children easily Alicia, a 33 year old British mother, is suffering. Her daughter melody, 13, is unable to walk or speak, paralyzed in bed or take care of herself. However, all these misfortunes are caused by a simple kiss, the Daily Star reported.

When melody was just two weeks old, Alicia, her mother, gave her a simple kiss, which led to her child's unfortunate infection with herpes virus. The child's chest and legs were suddenly covered with blisters, and she was in great pain at a young age.

A few weeks later, her condition became worse and worse. She even had epilepsy. Melody almost lost her life. Fortunately, she was rescued by a doctor.

Until the summer of 2008, Alicia's illness began to recur. It was at this time that she lost her ability to move and speak.

But this time, the doctor couldn't do anything. Melody's face was so blank that she couldn't even recognize her family.

Now, Alicia hopes to use her and her daughter's unfortunate experience to warn other parents not to kiss the new baby casually, because no one knows what kind of virus will be carried on the lips of adults. Once the baby is infected with herpes virus, it will be fatal.

Tencent real identification: a kiss to let the baby suffer from cerebral palsy? This kind of thing may happen, although the probability is very low, but it must be prevented.

1. When an adult kisses a child, it is likely to infect the child with 'oral herpes virus'. The typical manifestation of oral herpes is what people call' inflaming '.

2. Usually, the herpes virus will not cause very serious symptoms. In a few cases, the virus can indeed cause meningitis and encephalitis. Meningitis or encephalitis secondary to herpes infection is extremely rare.

The immune function of infants is not well developed. Compared with older children or adults, the ability to fight against virus infection is weak and more susceptible to infection.

So, if the adult himself is in the active period of herpes virus, such as the occurrence of a cold like and 'burning' symptoms, remember not to kiss the child, nor the cheek, it is better to avoid even holding the child. Of course, if it's parents, even during the attack, it's impossible to isolate their children completely. That must pay attention to wash hands frequently, especially before contacting children, wash hands with soap, don't kiss children, and don't kiss anywhere. In addition, during the attack, pay attention not to share drinks and tableware with children, and don't share anything in contact with the mouth with children.

It's not the active period of the virus. Don't kiss your child's mouth. Because our adult's mouth is actually very dirty for children. There are about 200 kinds of bacterial viruses, such as herpes virus, and Helicobacter pylori, which causes peptic ulcer or even gastric cancer. Kissing the child's mouth is equivalent to injecting the virus bacteria in our mouth into the child. Once it is transmitted to the child, it may accompany her / their life. Besides, kissing lips is part of human sexuality, and kissing a child's lips is really inappropriate.
