1. What to do if a child over 1 year old has a cough

Every change in the baby after birth is watched by the mother. Because many new mothers do not understand the baby's growth and development very well, sometimes their judgment of the baby's physical condition is not very accurate. From birth to adulthood, every day is very difficult for babies, and mothers worry about their babies growing up healthily. Let me tell you what to do if your one-year-old child has a cough?

There are two types of colds: viral colds and bacterial colds. Most of the early cases are viral infections and the blood count is not high. Antibiotics have no effect at all on viral colds. Fever is a form of resistance of the body to the virus. Except for those patients with complicated pneumonia and high blood count, they can be given antipyretic treatment and antibiotics as appropriate. If the body temperature does not exceed 38°C and the blood count is not high, try not to receive intravenous infusion.

Children's coughing is a defensive reflex movement of the human body. It can prevent the inhalation of foreign objects, prevent the accumulation of bronchial secretions, clear the secretions and avoid secondary respiratory infections. Any cause of acute or chronic inflammation of the respiratory tract can cause cough. According to the course of the disease, it can be divided into acute cough, subacute cough and chronic cough.

Exogenous cough is mostly caused by the invasion of external evils such as wind, cold, heat, and dryness. Its characteristics are: acute onset, short course, and frequent complications of colds; internal injury cough can be caused by spleen deficiency, lung deficiency, or kidney deficiency. It is characterized by slow onset, long course and repeated attacks. Children's coughs are more serious than those of adults, and most of them will cough incessantly. When parents see their children coughing a little, they will go to the doctor, prescribe medicine, and give them intravenous drips. The result of taking medicine is that the child's appetite is poor, the nutrition is not enough, and the child's resistance is poor. This makes the child more likely to catch a cold and cough. Therefore, these children fall into a vicious circle. The children often grow thin, have a sallow complexion, and may even develop asthma. Therefore, when a child has symptoms of coughing, parents should first observe their cough to see if there are any complications and systemic symptoms, and then decide whether to seek medical attention immediately.

No matter it is a cold caused by wind or heat, you should avoid eating any nourishing, greasy, or sour food, such as pork, duck, chicken, lamb, glutinous rice, astragalus, polygonatum, ophiopogon, ginseng, placenta, donkey-hide gelatin, various marine fish, shrimp, crab, longan meat, pomegranate, black plum, and various sticky desserts.
