Internal injury cough refers to a long-term, recurrent chronic cough. Or a cough caused by a cold and fever. Although the symptoms of a cold and fever have disappeared, the cough has not been cured.

Even if the sputum has been coughed up, it will only be swallowed into the stomach. When the baby coughs, the parents pick up the baby and pat the baby's back gently with their empty palms, up, down, left and right. If the baby coughs as soon as a certain part is photographed, it means that the baby's sputum is accumulated here and should be photographed emphatically. Most of them are under the shoulder blades, that is, the bottom of the lungs is easy to accumulate phlegm. As long as there is sputum stimulation, the baby will cough, and once sputum is discharged, the cough can be temporarily relieved. Therefore, patting the back can broaden the chest and regulate qi, and promote the discharge of phlegm. It is best to pat the back when the baby just wakes up or goes to bed. 2. For babies with wind-heat cough accompanied by sore throat and tonsillitis, foot massage can be used. First rub your baby's feet up and down, rubbing each foot 30 times. Then massage each toe up and down for 20~40 times. Focus on massaging the parts on both sides of the big toe root. As long as the tonsils are inflamed, this part will be very painful. Massage each foot for 5 minutes. After massage, the baby's symptoms of sore throat will be significantly reduced. After massage, give your baby plenty of warm water in time, or you can drink light salt water. Massage your baby twice a day, and then with diet therapy, your baby's illness will heal quickly. The diet prescription introduced above can also be eaten by adults, but the amount of food is slightly more. Pay attention to the "nurturing" of children's cough. As the saying goes, "three points should be treated and seven points should be nurtured". If you want to cure children's cough, you must pay attention to "nurturing". Keeping the indoor air fresh and dirty will cause bad stimulation to respiratory mucosa, which can make respiratory mucosa hyperemia, edema, abnormal secretion or aggravate cough, and even cause wheezing symptoms in severe cases. Therefore, to keep the indoor air fresh, the kitchen fume should be discharged, and parents should not smoke at home. You should open the window regularly for ventilation. Many parents believe that children are definitely more afraid of the cold than adults. They often cover their children too thick and wrap them too tightly regardless of seasons and indoors and outdoors, so as not to let them suffer from a little cold. As a result, their body's adjustment ability is poor and their resistance is low. Adjusting the room temperature children cough is often accompanied by fever, and too high room temperature is not conducive to body heat dissipation. Slightly cold and fresh air can make respiratory mucosa contract, reduce congestion and swelling, and keep airway unobstructed. However, if the temperature is too low, the nutrients digested and absorbed will be used for oxidation too much to generate energy to keep the body temperature, which weakens the disease resistance and affects the growth and development. The suitable temperature is 25-28℃, which is called neutral temperature. It is difficult to keep this temperature under normal conditions, but the room temperature can not be too high or too low. Proper opening and closing of doors and windows, avoiding crowded indoor people, and using electric fans, heaters or air conditioners are all simple and easy measures. Keep the room with proper humidity, the environment is too dry, the air humidity drops, the mucosa becomes dry and brittle, small blood vessels may rupture and bleed, cilia movement is limited, and sputum is not easy to cough up. When there is inflammation in the respiratory organs, the influence is more obvious. It is not difficult to keep a certain humidity in the room. When the climate is dry, you can often mop the floor with a wet mop or sprinkle some water on the floor. Pay attention to diet regulation. As the saying goes, "Fish makes a fire, meat produces phlegm, and green vegetables and tofu keep you safe". Chinese medicine believes that fishy and greasy foods such as fish, crab, shrimp and fat meat may help damp and produce phlegm, and some may also cause allergic reactions and aggravate the condition. Pepper, pepper, ginger and other spicy products have a stimulating effect on the respiratory tract, which makes the cough worse and should be avoided. Fresh vegetables, such as vegetables, carrots, tomatoes, etc., can supply a variety of vitamins and inorganic salts, which is conducive to the recovery of the body's metabolic function. When enough sleep is ensured, the muscles of the whole body are relaxed, the response to external stimuli is reduced, and activities such as heartbeat, breathing and excretion are reduced, which is conducive to the recovery of various organ functions and the rehabilitation of diseases. We should try our best to make children stay in bed and ensure their adequate sleep, so as to facilitate their recovery.
