Treatment of baby's cough with white sputum

Babies will cough during their growth process. At this time, the sputum of many babies' coughs is white. At this time, many babies have cold coughs. In addition to actively taking the children to the doctor for treatment, what is also needed is diet therapy and daily care. The following mainly introduces what to do if the baby coughs with white sputum?

1. If a baby coughs and has white sputum, it generally means that the baby has a cold. If the baby has bronchitis, the baby will also cough and have white sputum. When your baby is sleeping, usually let the baby's head be slightly elevated, which will help the baby breathe smoothly and rest well. This situation is usually caused by catching a cold. If your baby does not have a fever, try not to use medication.

2 Parents should give their babies more boiled water, keep them warm, eat light and easily digestible food, and avoid greasy or irritating food, such as overly sweet, overly salty, etc. If it is a cough caused by cold, you can boil some ginger + brown sugar + garlic for your baby to drink, and take some anti-inflammatory medicine if necessary. The treatment period for baby's cough is extremely long. If diet therapy can be applied, unexpected results will often be achieved. At the same time, the temperature, humidity and air concentration in the baby's bedroom should be appropriate, the baby's clothes and quilts should fit well, and attention should be paid to keeping the baby's abdomen warm.

3 It takes time for phlegm to disappear, so parents should provide good care for their children. Families with the conditions can add a humidifier in the room, especially during the dry bath season and at night. If necessary, parents can give their baby medication for symptomatic treatment under the guidance of a doctor. If the symptoms are not relieved after three days of medication, you should go to the hospital for treatment again.

4Babies’ cough often lasts for a long time without any other complications. If you find that your baby coughs in the morning and vomits phlegm, and this condition lasts for more than three weeks, it is likely that the baby has tracheitis or allergic tracheitis.

In short, if your baby's cough is mild and does not get worse, you usually only need to do a good job of home care. If the cough gets worse or the condition does not improve, you need to see a doctor in time for appropriate examination and treatment. Mothers must pay more attention to the health of their babies.
