Children often take deep breaths unconsciously

Sometimes, when parents are accompanying their children, they may inadvertently discover that their children are taking deep breaths unconsciously. Children take deep breaths because they feel that there is not enough oxygen in their bodies, which cannot be achieved by breathing alone, so they need to rely on deep breathing to absorb more oxygen. This situation is most likely caused by the child feeling chest tightness and shortness of breath. Let’s take a look at what happens when children breathe deeply unconsciously.

1. Overview

We all know that in daily life, some children have uneven breathing after they are sick, and they often take deep breaths, which makes adults feel very puzzled. My child is only a few years old and has been having this problem recently. We are not sure whether it is related to the myocardial damage caused by a cold a few days ago. We have used oral medication to treat him several times but it has not been completely cured. Now the child’s sleep is not normal. We are afraid that more serious symptoms will occur, so we are very anxious. I want to ask the doctor what is going on.

2. Steps/Methods:

01

Generally speaking, we all know that there are many reasons why children always take deep breaths. In addition to genetic reasons, the child's problem may also be related to bronchitis and insufficient lung qi. After the onset of the disease, it is important to keep warm and pay attention to daily diet.

02

In addition, we also know that babies show this adverse behavior at different ages and the specific causes are also different. Young children may suffer from insufficient blood supply or lack of oxygen. If they are breastfed, they should eat more blood-enriching foods, pay attention to rest during this period, and prevent colds. Eat a light diet

03

Some scholars also say that the baby's frequent deep breathing may be caused by allergic asthma. The main suspicion is that allergies or nasal diseases may cause some symptoms. It is recommended to check for allergens. A blood test is more accurate. It is also better to take some aminophylline and promethazine to relieve spasms, reduce phlegm and relieve asthma.

3. Notes:

In short, there are many things parents should pay attention to when their baby shows this condition. They should keep warm to prevent colds from aggravating the condition. If necessary, do a nasal endoscopy. If nasal hypertrophy or nasal polyps are found, the child should be treated as soon as possible to prevent the condition from getting worse again.
