Children's early morning cough is not good

For parents, their children's health is everything. When children have some health problems, parents will become extremely worried. The issue of children's coughing is what parents are most concerned about, because once a child has a cough, it will take ten days or half a month to get better, especially at night when the cough is more severe. So how should we deal with the symptoms of children's cough?

Why does your child keep coughing? The first step in diagnosis and treatment is to get a clear diagnosis. The main causes of cough include respiratory diseases (inflammation of the pharynx, larynx, trachea, bronchi, and lungs, foreign bodies, bleeding, tumors, inhalation of irritating gases, etc.), pleural diseases, cardiovascular diseases (such as myocarditis, arrhythmia) and central factors. The cause of cough is not limited to the lungs, but the location of cough is not far from the lungs. As the saying goes, "The lung qi is like a bell that rings when it is struck." Cough is the main symptom caused by external evil or dysfunction of internal organs, which leads to dysfunction of the lung's functions of dispersing and descending, controlling qi, regulating breathing, controlling regulation, and regulating water channels.

It is important to distinguish whether a cough is infectious or allergic, acute or chronic, involving the upper or lower respiratory tract, or external or internal injury. It is also important to pay attention to the time of coughing: those who cough more often before noon have fire in the stomach, those who cough in the afternoon mostly have yin deficiency, those who cough in the evening have fire floating in the lungs, and those who cough more often at dawn have food accumulation in the stomach.

Treatment should be directed at the symptoms. When the sputum is thick and difficult to cough up, you should drink enough water to dilute the sputum. You can also use expectorants such as Qutanling, fresh bamboo juice and nebulization inhalation therapy to help expectoration. In case of severe cough, sedatives such as Phenergan can be used to stop the cough.

Finally, I would like to remind all parents that if their children have health problems, they should remain calm and not give their children medicine in a panic. They should go to a regular hospital for relevant examinations in time so that they can prescribe the right medicine. Children's coughing problems should also be taken seriously because it is very likely to cause lung diseases.
