Two typical symptoms of allergic cough

So what's wrong with rubbing the eyes and dark circles? Allergic babies, sleep at night will often nasal congestion, the nose is not ventilated, the baby will toss and turn, a long time to sleep well, so the baby will have dark circles under the eyes, and even some babies may suffer from allergic conjunctivitis caused by ocular discomfort, which leads to rubbing the eyes. The baby suddenly cough that is how it? It turns out that the baby's nose inside the nasal water will flow from the back of the nose to the throat, the baby fell asleep can not spit out or swallow, choking to the windpipe so will cough.
