2, should not eat when coughing.
(1) Avoid cold food, and do not eat cold drinks or frozen drinks when coughing. If the diet is too cold when coughing, it is easy to cause lung qi occlusion, and the symptoms are aggravated, which will not heal for a long time.
(2) Avoid fatty and sweet foods. Chinese medicine believes that cough is mostly caused by lung heat, especially for children. In the daily diet, eating more fat, sweet and thick food can produce internal heat, aggravate cough, and phlegm is sticky and difficult to cough up.
(3) Avoid fishy smell of shrimps and crabs. Most people know that you should avoid "hair" when coughing, and you should not eat fishy smell. Fishy smell has the greatest influence on "wind-heat cough".
(4) Avoid sweet and sour food. Acid food often accumulates phlegm, which makes it difficult to cough up phlegm, thus aggravating the illness and making the cough difficult to heal.
(5) Don't eat oranges, because orange meat generates heat and phlegm.
(6) Avoid eating peanuts, melon seeds, chocolates, etc. These foods contain more oil, which is easy to breed sputum after eating, making cough worse.
(7) Do not eat supplements. Many parents give some supplements to children with weak constitution, but children should stop taking supplements when their cough is not cured, so as not to make it difficult to cure.
3. How to prevent cough
(1) Cough prevention first
It is very important to prevent cough and cold, so children should pay attention to exercise, improve their ability to resist "evil" and avoid exogenous diseases to prevent aggravation of the disease. Children should strengthen their living conditioning, the living environment should be quiet, and windows should be opened frequently for ventilation to keep the indoor air fresh, so as to prevent the room from being filled with lampblack and smoke, causing or aggravating cough. Try not to take children to public places and avoid contact with cough patients.
(2) benefit the lungs and drink plenty of water
The dry climate in autumn makes the human body lose a lot of water. To make up for these losses in time, drink at least 500 ml more water every day than in other seasons to maintain the normal humidity of the lungs and respiratory tract. You can also "shoot" water directly into the respiratory tract by pouring hot water into the cup and inhaling it with your nose at the mouth of the cup, every time 10 minute, 2 ~ 3 times a day.
(3) Eat lung-moistening food
Autumn pears are on the market. Eating 1-2 pears a day can nourish the lungs, moisten the dryness, moisten the intestines and relieve constipation, and prevent cough. In addition, kumquat has a good cough relieving effect, and it can be eaten 3 times a day, with 5-6 capsules each time, which can also play a preventive role. Tremella, candied dates, lilies, loquat, etc. all have the function of moistening lung, and making soup with these ingredients is a good therapeutic recipe for moistening lung.
(4) Drink warm drinks
Warm drinks can make sticky phlegm thinner, relieve the tension of respiratory mucosa and promote expectoration. Warm boiled water, warm milk and rice soup are all good choices. You can also drink some fresh fruit juice, such as apple juice and pear juice, which are less irritating. It is not advisable to drink citrus juice such as orange juice and grapefruit juice.
(5) steam relieving cough
Children with persistent cough will get some relief when the room temperature is about 20 degrees and the humidity is about 60%-65%. If the child has a serious cough, you can sit in the bathroom filled with steam for 5 minutes with your child in your arms. The humid air can help the child clear the mucus in the lungs and calm the cough.
(6) Increase or decrease clothes and quilts
Mothers should add or subtract clothes for their children according to the temperature of the day; When children play and sweat a lot, they should wipe sweat and change dry clothes in time; When the temperature is low at night, cover the child with a quilt to prevent the child from catching a cold and coughing.
(7) Ensure adequate sleep
During sleep, 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. Mothers should try to make their children stay in bed more and ensure their children get enough sleep, which is conducive to the recovery of the body.
