There is generally no quick way for children to cough. Cough has the functions of cleaning the airway and coughing up foreign bodies. Blind cough treatment is not recommended for children with mild cough. If the child has a bad cough, in addition to general treatment, he should seek medical attention immediately, improve relevant examinations, and clarify the cause before treatment. The following ways can be used to help alleviate it:

First, general treatment

1.pat on the back: When pollen, atmospheric particles, dust or other foreign bodies are accidentally inhaled into the airway, the respiratory mucosa may be stimulated by foreign bodies, which may induce cough and make the child cough badly. At this time, you can try to pat the child's back to remove foreign objects. For large foreign bodies, they need to be taken out by professional means under the operation of doctors;

2. Appropriate drinking water: Some children will be accompanied by sputum when coughing badly, and the amount of drinking water can be appropriately increased, thus diluting sputum and relieving throat discomfort;

3. Ventilation: For children's living environment, regular ventilation is needed to ensure good indoor air. Humidifier can be used to increase indoor humidity, which helps to relieve children's cough.

Second, the cause of treatment

Severe cough caused by different causes is treated with different drugs. Drugs can be selected under the guidance of doctors. Antibiotics and antihistamines are commonly used for treatment, but there is usually no medicine to relieve cough quickly.

If the common cold causes the child to cough badly, drugs such as wind-cold cough granules and cough syrup can be used for treatment. If bacterial infection is found, antibiotics can be used for anti-inflammatory treatment, such as cephalosporins. If it is cough caused by variant asthma, children usually have severe dry cough and frequent cough at night, so bronchodilators, glucocorticoid and anticholinergic drugs should be used according to the doctor's advice to relieve it. If children inhale specific inhalants like dust mites, dust, pollen and animal dander, if they cough badly, they can use some anti-allergic drugs under the guidance of doctors, such as antihistamines and glucocorticoids, which can effectively alleviate the cough caused by allergies; If the child has other respiratory diseases, such as respiratory malformations, bronchial cysts, mediastinal tumors, ciliary dyskinesia, etc., it may also cause the child to cough badly. At this time, surgery and other treatments can be performed according to the specific situation of the child.

In addition, if some children have gastroesophageal reflux, they may also induce cough and have severe cough. They can be treated with drugs such as H2 receptor blockers, gastric mucosal protective agents and proton pump inhibitors to relieve cough symptoms.
