However, recently, more and more doctors have suggested that you should not give your baby pear water and pear paste as soon as you cough. This move is likely to aggravate your cough and even trigger a more serious reaction! What's going on here? Let's take a look.
First of all, there are many kinds of baby's cough, such as cough caused by wind-cold, wind-heat and qi deficiency. According to different types of cough, the treatment methods are different.
Wind-cold cough mainly disperses cold and spreads lung, wind-heat cough mainly clears lung and resolves phlegm, and qi-deficiency cough mainly strengthens spleen and benefits qi, and relieves cough and resolves phlegm. Therefore, you can't treat a cough in a unified way.
In fact, coughing is just a symptom, not a disease. Because there are many types of cough and many reasons for it, it is not only possible to judge what kind of disease it is based on cough, but also to combine other symptoms. For example, some coughs may be caused by respiratory infection, others may be caused by rhinitis and so on.
So, can the baby cough be relieved by diet therapy and pear water? We can roughly divide it into these two situations.
If the baby's cough is dry, it means only coughing without sputum, or there is little sputum. At this time, you can drink some pear water and eat some pear cream to moisten your lungs, which is conducive to relieving cough.
But if the baby not only coughs, but also has a lot of sputum, it is not suitable to drink pear water at this time, because it is likely that there will be more and more sputum after drinking. Too much sputum is easy to cause infection, which may lead to fever and even other symptoms, which will become more and more serious. Therefore, the treasure mothers must decide according to the baby's situation.
It is a good starting point to relieve the discomfort of babies through diet therapy, and sometimes it is indeed a good method. However, you should not blindly follow the trend, and you need to carefully observe and carefully judge whether it is suitable or not. Many mothers have gradually found a method suitable for their babies through long-term exploration and experience summary, and they are becoming more and more handy in taking care of their babies. These are very worthy of recognition!
