What should I do if my baby coughs and wheezes? Moms can do this!

If an adult is coughing and wheezing, there are more solutions. But if the patient is an infant, the solutions will be more limited and more difficult. So today we recommend some healthy methods to treat this disease for infants.

1. Polygonatum odoratum porridge: 15g of fresh polygonatum odoratum, double the amount, 50g of polished rice. Usage: Wash and chop the Polygonatum odoratum, add water to boil it into soup, extract the juice and remove the residue, and use the Polygonatum odoratum juice to cook porridge (add water when cooking porridge). Take warm twice a day, morning and evening. One week is one course of treatment. Stop for one week before starting the second course.

2. Lily and pear candy: 10g lily (fresh lily is better, double the amount), 1 pear, 15g white sugar. Wash the lilies and slice the pears. Mix lily, pear and sugar in a bowl, steam until cooked, let cool and take all at once. Twice a day.

3. Peanuts and rock sugar: 100-150g peanuts and appropriate amount of rock sugar. Wash the peanuts, add rock sugar and water and cook until done. Eat the peanuts and drink the soup, divided into three times a day.

4. Tremella soup: 5g Tremella, 1 egg, 60g rock sugar, and appropriate amount of lard. Soak the white fungus in warm water for about 30 minutes. After it is fully expanded, remove impurities, wash and cut into slices. Then add appropriate amount of water and bring to a boil. Then simmer for another 2 hours over low heat until the white fungus is cooked. Add rock sugar to water and boil until melted, beat in eggs, add a little water and stir well, put into a pot and boil while stirring. Pour the egg and sugar juice into the white fungus pot and add a little lard when removing from the pot.

5. Drug treatment: Chinese patent medicine can be chosen to treat cough. Sunflower brand Children's Lung Heat Cough and Asthma Oral Liquid is the most commonly used Chinese patent medicine for children's cough. The Chinese medicinal ingredients it contains have antibacterial, heat-clearing, antitussive, antiasthmatic and expectorant effects. This product can inhibit the growth of bacteria and viruses, has a broad antibacterial effect, and exerts a strong antitussive effect by inhibiting the respiratory center. Its intensity is similar to that of codeine phosphate. It also has clear effects of clearing heat, relieving asthma, and removing phlegm.

6. Steam cough suppression method: Babies who keep coughing will have their symptoms relieved in an environment with a room temperature of around 20 degrees and a humidity of around 60-65%. If your baby has a severe cough, let him/her inhale steam; or hold your baby in a steam-filled bathroom for 5 minutes. The humid air can help clear mucus from your baby's lungs and calm his/her cough.
