Full transcript
Hay fever season has arrived early this year — could you tell me exactly what symptoms you and your four-year-old son are experiencing right now?
سلام، هوا داره خیلی اذیتم میکنه، دائم عطسه میکنم و چشمام میخارن. پسرم هم همینطوره، انگار دو نفریمون سرما خوردیم ولی تب نداریم.
Does he also have a runny nose, or is it mainly sneezing and itchy, watery eyes? And has this been going on for more than a week?
بله، بینیش هم آب میاد، و این وضعیت تقریباً ده روزه ادامه داره. فکر میکنم بخاطر گردههای بهاریه باشه.
For you, I'd recommend a non-drowsy antihistamine tablet taken once daily. For your son, we'll need to check his age before choosing anything stronger.
پسرم چهار سالشه. میخوام بدونم این اسپری بینی واسه بچهای به این سن امنه یا نه؟ واقعاً نگرانشم.
Yes, this particular corticosteroid nasal spray is approved and safe for children aged four and older, but it isn't recommended for kids under two years old.
خیلی خوشحالم که گفتید امنه. راستی، چطور میتونم بفهمم امروز میزان گردهها زیاده یا نه تا بچه رو بیرون نبرم؟
You could also download the Melbourne Pollen app — it tracks daily pollen counts so you know which mornings to keep him indoors.
عالیه، همین امروز نصبش میکنم. حالا برای پسرم چقدر باید از این اسپری استفاده کنم؟
Give him one spray in each nostril, twice a day, for no more than ten days unless your doctor says otherwise.
خیلی ممنون، همه چیز برام روشن شد. اگه تبش کرد یا حالش بدتر شد، حتماً میبرمش پیش دکتر.
