Is it good to drink honey if the baby has pneumonia?

For all parents, paying attention to the baby's physical health is something you need to do every day. When your baby always has a fever and keeps coughing, you must take him to the hospital in time, because sometimes this is a specific manifestation of pneumonia. So, if the baby unfortunately suffers from pneumonia, in addition to conventional drug treatment, can the baby also be given honey for treatment?

Honey has anti-inflammatory, expectorant, and cough-relieving effects. Therefore, you can drink honey for pneumonia.

Pneumonia refers to inflammation of the terminal airways, alveoli, and lung interstitium.

Guidance:

1. Turn the baby over and pat his back more often to help discharge respiratory secretions. When the baby coughs a lot, it will be very uncomfortable when sleeping. Parents should remember to turn the baby over and pat his back more often to help discharge respiratory secretions.

2. Eat more fruits and soups, and less eggs. The food should be light, and you should drink more water and take more vitamin C. But be careful not to eat too much at one time, as too much protein can cause indigestion.

3. For nasal congestion, use a thin cotton swab or a nasal aspirator. If your baby has a stuffy nose, you can use a cotton swab dipped in warm water to moisten the nasal crust and remove it little by little. Parents should be careful not to use too much force. Choose a thin cotton swab, which is easier to use than a traditional cotton swab. A nasal aspirator can also come in handy at this time.

4. Bring your own thermometer and hygrometer, keep the air flowing, and open the window 2 to 3 times a day. Bring your own thermometer and hygrometer, which are sold in large supermarkets. Keep the indoor air flowing, open the window 2 to 3 times a day, and control the indoor temperature and humidity. The temperature is about 18℃~22℃, and the humidity is about 60%.

5. Apply a cold towel to the forehead (antipyretic patch) and wipe the body with alcohol. If the baby has a fever, applying a cold towel to the forehead can reduce the baby's fever. Antipyretic patches can also be used. In addition, wiping the body with 30% to 50% alcohol can also help the baby cool down physically.
