Children cough when exercising

Coughing is a disease of the respiratory tract and lung function, usually caused by respiratory tract infection, so patients must choose the appropriate method to slowly adjust according to their personal physical condition, so that they can recover faster. In addition, everyone needs to pay attention that many parents will find that their children do not cough normally, but will cough after strenuous exercise. They need to go to the hospital to check whether there is inflammation or infection.

Cough is a common symptom of respiratory diseases in children. It often occurs when children suffer from upper and lower respiratory tract infections such as tuberculosis and asthma. In most cases, the cough gradually improves after antibiotic treatment, but sometimes the cough does not get better after multiple antibiotics and cough and expectorant drugs are used, but it is difficult to cure. Such children often suffer from cough variant asthma (coughing often occurs at night or in the early morning, worsens after exercise, and has little sputum).

Treatment

Take targeted treatment and never blindly abuse antibiotics. The combination of Chinese and Western medicine (hormones, anticholine drugs) in treatment has obvious effects. You must go to the hospital for examination to determine the nature of the disease.

1) Actively look for allergens: pollen, house dust, mites, paint dyes, etc.

2) Avoid triggers: First, climate change and cold air stimulation; second, coughing worsens after exercise, so avoid strenuous exercise; third, avoid emotional excitement and crying.

3) Enhance the body's immune function.

Cough Cough is a protective reflex action of the human body. Pathological secretions in the respiratory tract and foreign objects that enter the respiratory tract from the outside can be expelled from the body through the cough reflex. However, if the cough is frequent and irritating and affects work and rest, it loses its protective significance.

[Causes]

1. Respiratory diseases

Inhalation of irritating gases in various parts of the respiratory tract, such as the pharynx, larynx, trachea, bronchi and lungs, as well as stimulation by foreign bodies, inflammation, tumors, bleeding, etc. can all cause coughing.

2. Pleural diseases

Pleurisy or pleural irritation (such as spontaneous pneumothorax) can cause cough.

3. Heart disease

Pulmonary congestion and pulmonary edema caused by left heart failure due to mitral stenosis or other reasons can cause cough. Cough and hemoptysis may also occur when pulmonary embolism is caused by thrombi detaching from the right heart or systemic circulation veins.

4. Central factors

Coughing can also originate from the cerebral cortex (voluntary cough), in which impulses are transmitted from the cerebral cortex to the cough center in the medulla oblongata, causing coughing movements.
