Sugar reduces pain in babies
Babies aged up to a year should be given something sweet before they are made injections for the pain to be smoother, say Canadian experts quoted by the BBC.
Experts from the University of Toronto says that babies cry less during the vaccination if, before being injected, receive a few drops of sweet solution.
Researchers based their study on data collected in 1000 newborn cases, when after immunization , they found that those who have been given glucose solution with a concentration of 20% cried less.
The team of researchers led by Dr. Arne Ohlsson found that glucose and sucrose are equally beneficial in relieving other types of pain as well , such as those caused by blows to the knee.
