What should I do if my baby keeps coughing suddenly?

When mothers see their babies coughing, they should be alert and not think it doesn't matter. Even if the baby's cough is not very serious, it should be relieved and eliminated as soon as possible. For example, drinking more water or eating a light diet should not be ignored. If the cough does not stop, the situation will be more serious. It is still necessary to find a way to stop the cough as soon as possible. So what should I do if my baby suddenly coughs non-stop?

Yam porridge: Peel the yam, cut it into small pieces and put it into a food grinder. Then add half a bowl of water and process the yam into a thin paste. Then pour it into the pot, put it on the fire, stir constantly and bring to a boil. It is best for babies to eat it on an empty stomach. A bowl of prepared yam porridge can be fed to the baby in 2 to 3 times. Yam strengthens the spleen and stomach, replenishes lung qi, and benefits kidney essence. This recipe is most suitable for infants and young children. It can not only relieve cough and treat asthma, but also has a good therapeutic effect on children's anorexia, excessive sweating, drooling, qi deficiency and timidity. It should be noted that the yam should not be boiled for too long, otherwise the amylase contained in it will decompose and lose its nourishing effect.

This recipe of red dates + ginkgo nuts is suitable for babies over 2 years old. Take 3 red dates and 3 ginkgo nuts, put them in a small pot, add half a bowl of water, and cook on medium heat for 10 minutes. Give it to your baby every night before going to bed. Red dates are warm in nature, replenish qi and strengthen the spleen and stomach; ginkgo is mild in nature, and can restrain lung qi, relieve cough and asthma, and strengthen the kidneys. Therefore, it is very effective for children with long-term coughs, recurrent colds, coughs, and fevers. It can also treat enuresis. It should be noted that the amount of red dates and ginkgo nuts must be controlled and limited to 3 pieces. Too much will cause the baby to get angry and have qi stagnation.

Walnuts + sesame seeds + red dates + honey: half a pound of walnut kernels, 2 taels of black sesame seeds, and half a pound of red dates. Crush them and put them in a large bowl and mix them evenly. Then add 1 tablespoon of honey and 3 tablespoons of water (since honey is difficult to mix evenly, you can heat the honey and water on the fire first). Cover the large bowl and put it into a large pot to steam. After boiling over high heat, switch to low heat and steam for 40 minutes. Give your baby one spoonful every morning and evening.

As for what to do if your baby suddenly keeps coughing, the above introduction is very clear. Mothers need to pay attention to their children's health at all times and cannot be negligent in the slightest. Children are still young and their immunity and resistance are very poor. It is crucial to take good care of their daily life and prevent diseases before they occur.
