The baby coughs me panic!I dare not feed the cough medicine, the doctor taught these three methods, and the pro -test is effective

Going to kindergarten for more than half a month, I have been coughing;

The cough is repeated, and it is easy to fall asleep in the middle of the night.

Getting up in the morning, you must cough for 5 minutes ...

Cough in the morning, cough at night, eating cough, drinking water ... Looking at the baby uncomfortable, it is really sad.

Today, the University of Science and Technology has an in -depth analysis of [Autumn Cough]!

Reason one: dry cold air, dust, etc.

Dry cold air, dust and other physical and chemical factors have stimulated the throat and bronchial bronchial mucosa, causing constant cough.

If the child is in a lot of dust, or the temperature changes, the cough causes.

In this case, we only need to keep the living environment clean, keep warm, and stay away from the dust.

Reason two: Allergic cough

Allergic cough is stimulated by allergens. Its common symptoms are ↓↓↓

Allergic cough is cough caused by a specific space, or contacting specific allergens.

As long as parents pay attention to avoid allergens, they can solve their daily care at the same time.

Reason three: cough mutant asthma

Cough mutant asthma is a kind of asthma, with irritating dry cough as the main symptoms, spasm cough in morning and evening, usually accompanied by allergic rhinitis and high reaction of airway.

Therefore, when the child has the following four situations, you must pay attention to whether to go to the hospital for a recruitment. The

△ The cough is continuous or repeated for more than a month. After exercise, night or early morning, it is particularly obvious and less sputum;

△ After the test, there is no obvious infection symptoms, or the treatment of antibiotics is invalid;

△ The use of bronchial expansion agents can be relieved;

△ There is a history of personal or family allergies.

Reason 4: Acute bronchitis

Cough and sputum symptoms occur after the viral inflexibility. The following sound appears, and it is necessary to consider whether it is a strange acute bronchitis.

Acute bronchitis has self-limiting, even if you don't care about it, you can generally heal yourself in 2-3 weeks.

Reason 5: Chronic cough

If the baby starts to cough in autumn and continue to attack for more than 2 months, you must consider chronic cough.

Chronic cough generally coughs after getting up in the morning, and can cough out the sputum of white foam, or mucus sputum.

When the child coughs, we must first find the cause of the cough:

If it is caused by allergies, try to avoid allergens;

If it is asthma, take medicine according to the doctor's order.

Secondly, the child's condition should be observed. If there is no fever, nasal congestion, runny nose, or breathing rapidness, mental deficiency, etc., you can first reduce discomfort through family care.

● less than 3 months

If the baby coughs within 3 months, no matter what the reason, go to the doctor immediately!

● 3 months-1 year old

① Relieve the discomfort caused by cough and cramps

Take a hot bath and let the child be in a warm and humid environment.

Drink enough warm water (or warm milk) to replenish water to reduce cough due to stimuli.

② Use sea salt water and nasal washing device

If the cough appears with the snot, you can rinse the nose with diluted sea salt water to make your child breathe smoother, and avoid breathing the upper respiratory tract with your mouth after nasal congestion.

③ Put a humidifier in the bedroom

We can put a humidifier in the bedroom to relieve the discomfort caused by cough through the steam inside, but pay attention:

Precautions for the use of humidifiers

1. Use pure water or cool white, or use distilled water with less impurities, do not put sterilizers, vinegar, essential oils, lemon slices, etc.;

2. Persist in changing water every day. Wash the bottle with water in the humidifier once a week, and clean it once a month in other parts;

3. Stay away from the bedside to avoid the child inhaled the virus in the water mist; placed in a place high than 0.5-1m above the ground, it is best to place it in a place with ventilation and light;

4. Avoid removal of long -term humidification, especially at night bedrooms flow less, and cannot be monitored. The longest is not more than 2 hours. Be sure to turn it off before going to bed!

④ atomization therapy

If the baby coughs with sputum, the atomization inhalation of physiological saline is also a good way to discharge phlegm.

For the first time to do atomization for the child, it should be performed under the guidance of a doctor; if the parents are already familiar with the process of fabrication for the child, you can choose to give the child at the atomization at home.

Both hospitals and pharmacies can be bought for fabricated physiological saline, and atomizer is best to choose the most commonly used air compressed pump -type atomizer of the hospital.

● Over 1 year old

For babies over 1 year old, we can also feed their children some honey to relieve cough.

Pay attention to honey to choose formal ones, about 1-2 spoons at a time.

If you are outside, you can also feed your child a hard sugar (children over 3 years old). The continuous swallowing syrup can form a protective film at the throat to reduce the stimulation of the throat and alleviate the baby's cough.

In addition, the baby's living environment should pay attention to the ventilation, or use the air purifier, and parents try not to smoke.

Daily diet balanced, eat less high sugar, high oil, high salt and irritating food.

Many babies have a serious cough before going to bed and night. It is recommended not to eat within 2 hours before bedtime, and do not eat too much dinner.

If the cough is too serious, you can also try to relieve the uphill towel between the head and the upper body.

Cough is not a disease, but a human self -protection. Bacteria, viruses, and sputum are excreted from the body through cough.The AAP of the American Academy of Children's Society clearly suggests:

Babies under the age of 6 are not recommended to use non -prescription cough and cold medicine.

Cough drugs may inhibit the smooth discharge of sputum, which will affect respiratory function and even increase the condition!

In addition, some central cough drugs may have side effects such as respiratory suppression, and some are also addictive, so infants and young children are not recommended to use cough drugs.

If the child can not cough at night, it has affected normal life, and he needs to take medicine as appropriate under the guidance of a doctor.
