A. If your 2-year-old boy has mumps, it's essential to focus on comfort and symptom relief, as there is no specific antiviral treatment for the virus. Ensure he gets plenty of rest and fluids to stay hydrated. You can apply warm or cold compresses to his swollen cheeks and jaw to ease discomfort. Over-the-counter pain relievers like acetaminophen or ibuprofen can help reduce fever and relieve pain, but be sure to follow the dosage instructions for his age. Encourage him to eat soft foods that are easy to chew, avoiding acidic foods that may irritate his mouth. Keep him isolated from others to prevent spreading the virus, especially to those who are unvaccinated or at higher risk. It's also important to consult your pediatrician for personalized guidance and to monitor for any complications, such as orchitis or meningitis.
