What should I do if my newborn baby sneezes or coughs?

Newborns are not as resistant as adults in all aspects, so they often get sick due to the influence of certain seasons and environments. The most common situation is that children always sneeze and cough. At this time, some parents don’t know what to do. They want to ask what is the best way to deal with newborns sneezing and coughing? Let me introduce it to you below, I hope it will be helpful to everyone.

1. When a cold first occurs, symptoms such as sneezing, runny nose, and nasal congestion may occur. At this time, you should let your baby drink more water to increase the supply of VC. You can drink VC effervescent tablets or freshly squeezed orange juice to enhance resistance. If you think your baby has caught a cold due to wind or cold, you should first give him some pediatric cold granules (or pediatric Baotaikang, which is quite effective in treating early colds), keep him warm, avoid being exposed to wind, and try to control the spread of respiratory infections.

2. When your baby has a stuffy nose, be sure to clean the mucus and increase the air humidity. You can cover the wings of your nose with a hot towel and massage them.

3. If you have symptoms of coughing, be alert. Generally, if you have a cough, you must go to the hospital for a check-up. The main purpose is to let the doctor listen to whether there is bronchial or lung inflammation. If there is no inflammation, but only an upper respiratory tract infection, do not take the antibiotics prescribed by the doctor, and there is no need to get an injection or even an IV drip. Colds are mostly caused by viruses. Taking antibiotics is completely ineffective and can only destroy the body's own immunity.

4. If the cough is caused only by a cold, the recommended medication is children's cough syrup (or fresh bamboo juice and other cough and phlegm-relieving Chinese medicine) plus antiviral granules (such as isatis root). Another important home care method is to boil rock sugar, Fritillaria and pear water for your baby to drink.

How to cook pear juice: 1 large duck pear + 3 to 4 Sichuan loquats + 2 to 3 small pieces of single crystal rock sugar, add water and boil for more than half an hour, boil it into about 200CC of water, drink it in one day, and cook new water the next day.
