Is nebulization good for babies?

People should be familiar with nebulization. It is a very common way to treat baby's cough. Compared with other treatment methods, such as taking medicine, injections or infusions, nebulization has better effects and fewer side effects, so it is more popular. However, many parents still have questions, that is, is it good for babies to do nebulization frequently? Let’s introduce it in detail below.

Is it good for babies to do nebulization frequently?

In fact, any kind of medicine or treatment, if used for a long time, will cause certain harm to the body. It is certainly not good for babies to be nebulized frequently, but it does not mean that they cannot be done. Since we have gone to the hospital and chosen a doctor, we must trust the other party to avoid causing trouble to ourselves. Besides, doctors see more cases than us, so they must be more professional than us.

Nebulizer inhalation is a commonly used treatment for respiratory diseases. In pediatrics, when a baby has respiratory diseases, such as acute bronchitis, pneumonia, etc., and the baby will show symptoms of coughing, sputum, and wheezing, nebulization inhalation should be the first choice of treatment, because this method of medication is an external medication method. Compared with intramuscular injection, oral medication or intravenous infusion, it is a local medication. The dosage of local medication is much smaller than that of systemic medication, and the side effects will naturally be much smaller. Local medication can make the effect more direct, more ideal and faster. Appropriate use of nebulizer inhalation is very beneficial for babies.

Daily disease care methods

If your baby has a minor illness, you can also use diet therapy to treat it first. Although this will slow down the recovery process, it will not have any side effects and will not affect the baby's resistance. Also, you should pay attention to keeping your child's lower abdomen warm to prevent the wind from blowing and causing illness. Pay attention to adjusting the temperature according to the ambient temperature and the child's clothing and quilt. Also, make sure the fan does not blow directly at the child. If conditions permit, you can turn on the air conditioner in other rooms, and then adjust the temperature of the child's room through air convection. Also, remember to open the windows for ventilation and clean the air conditioner regularly.
