Notes

Some babies are too young and do not cough up sputum. Therefore, parents can turn the baby over or pat the baby's back appropriately to promote blood circulation in the baby's lungs. In addition, this approach will also help loosen the sputum in the trachea and facilitate coughing.

If your baby has a severe cough and has symptoms of cold and fever, he should be sent to the hospital for treatment in time to avoid unnecessary trouble.
