How to relieve baby's dry retching and cough

When a baby is sick, the most distressed are the parents, especially when the baby is retching and coughing, the parents are helpless. So how to alleviate the baby's symptoms after the baby has symptoms of retching and coughing? Let's learn about it together;

Never use cough medicine indiscriminately when you have a cough, and infants and young children should not take adult medicines, otherwise the consequences will be disastrous! Coughing is a protective reflex of the human body. Germs and phlegm in the respiratory tract can be expelled from the body through coughing, which plays a role in cleaning the respiratory tract and keeping it unobstructed. However, some young parents find that their children have a slight cough, they are eager to feed their children various cough suppressants and cough syrups. After entering the human body, cough suppressants can quickly act on the cough center and produce a strong cough suppressant effect. Although this practice can temporarily relieve cough symptoms, it can cause a large amount of sputum and germs to accumulate in the respiratory tract, leading to secondary bacterial infection. In severe cases, it can cause chest tightness, difficulty breathing, and even atelectasis and heart failure, which are life-threatening.

Therefore, do not give your child cough medicine before you find out the cause of his cough. You can also let your children drink some Life Sunshine colostrum, which can enhance their disease resistance and improve immunity. If the child has obvious inflammatory symptoms while coughing, such as fever, yellow and sticky sputum, and increased white blood cell count in the blood, antibacterial drugs should be used in a timely manner under the guidance of a doctor. For children's cough, in addition to using antibiotics to treat bacterial infections, some simple and easy measures are also very effective. You can turn your child over or pat his back frequently to promote blood circulation in the lungs and loosen the phlegm in the bronchi to make it easier to discharge. The method of patting the back is as follows: the sick child lies on his side or is held up to lie on his side, and the parent bends his five fingers slightly into a semi-circle, that is, half-clenched a fist, and gently pats the sick child's back, alternating between both sides. The force of the tapping should not be too great, and it should be done from top to bottom and from outside to inside in sequence. Tap each side for 3 to 5 minutes, 2 to 3 times a day
