The baby's cough becomes worse the more medicine he takes

When many babies have a cough, their mothers will give them some medicine in time. In fact, this behavior is very correct, because if the baby's condition is not controlled in time, the baby is likely to get pneumonia, especially when the baby is young, because the organs of the body are not fully developed, and the probability of being infected with pneumonia is particularly high. So why does the baby's cough become more serious the more medicine he takes?

After the beginning of autumn, the autumn wind and rain become more frequent and the weather turns from hot to cool. Due to the increase in temperature difference between day and night, it is also the time when people are more likely to get sick, and it is also the time when babies are more likely to cough. Coughing is not a serious illness, but it is annoying, and parents are even more worried when their baby coughs. Coughing is often caused by phlegm in the throat. Eating more foods that can relieve cough and reduce phlegm can alleviate this situation. Now I would like to introduce to you a simple and effective dietary remedy for cough - sugarcane and orange peel water.

Recipe: One or two sections of sugar cane cut into pieces and one orange peel cut into shreds

Add appropriate amount of water and bring to a boil over high heat, then simmer over low heat for five minutes. Drink it as water. Drink it for two or three days. Benefits: clear internal heat, dispel external cold, relieve cough and reduce phlegm. Parents can flexibly adjust the amount of sugar cane and orange peel according to their baby's situation. Sugarcane is mainly used to treat hot cough and resolve hot phlegm; tangerine peel is mainly used to dispel external cold and resolve cold phlegm. If the baby only has symptoms of heat, such as red tongue, no coating, dry cough, and no nasal discharge (as shown in the picture below), just boil the sugarcane alone.

If your baby has just caught a cold and has a runny nose and a white tongue coating, just boil the orange peel alone. If the baby has cough and phlegm, his tongue is a little red, the tongue coating is white, and he occasionally has clear nasal discharge and nasal congestion, it means that he has external cold and internal heat (as shown in the picture below). You can boil sugar cane and orange peel together. If the heat is severe, add more sugarcane; if the cold is severe, add more orange peel.

I have previously shared with you how to use pear peel and bamboo shavings to remove heat and phlegm, but these two things are cold in winter. Sugarcane is the best choice for removing heat, phlegm and hot coughs in winter. Then I also shared with you that tangerine peel can eliminate cold phlegm, but many parents reported that it is inconvenient to find a Chinese medicine store. Now that tangerines are on the market, fresh tangerine peel has a similar effect to tangerine peel, so it is much more convenient.

Recently, I have guided many parents to use this cough diet therapy, and the feedback is that the results are very good. I would like to share it with you.
