When the child coughs, try to help cough up phlegm. You can let him lie on your lap horizontally, and then pat him on the back rhythmically, not too hard, and encourage the child to spit all the sputum into the basin.
Don't play too tired when the child has a bad cough, otherwise it will aggravate the cough. And pay attention to keep children warm, especially the soles of their feet and the top of their heads, so as to avoid catching cold and reducing respiratory resistance reflexively. But don't let the child's body overheat, because clothes are more likely to cause cough after being soaked in sweat.
For children who often have respiratory tract infection, cough and loss of appetite, in addition to the necessary drug treatment, they can also choose foods that strengthen the spleen and nourish the lungs, such as japonica rice, tremella, auricularia auricula, white radish, lily, ginkgo, gecko, Polygonatum odoratum, coix seed and so on. When a child coughs and breathes with fever, his body consumes too much water, so he should pay attention to supplementing water, drink more boiled water, rice soup and fresh fruit juice, and also need to supplement eggs and vegetables to maintain a balanced nutrition and improve immunity.
If you often cough and have other symptoms, such as shortness of breath and fever, you need to go to the hospital as soon as possible and ask a doctor for treatment.
If it is a sudden cough, it is likely that the child inhaled food or foreign objects into his throat, but he can still breathe, talk or cry. At this time, parents should encourage their children to cough, and never dig in their mouths with their hands to prevent foreign bodies from digging deeper and deeper, thus completely blocking the airway. If nothing coughs up, the child coughs or wheezes repeatedly, indicating that the foreign body has reached the respiratory tract, and immediately send the child to the hospital to take out the foreign body in time.
