When children are not sick, their mental state is generally very good, but once they get sick, not only will their mental state deteriorate, but their condition is also very difficult to improve. Once a child coughs, it may take one or two moods to recover. At this time, parents will feel very sorry and want to find some ways to help their children. So what are some tips for a 3-year-old child with severe coughing?
Firstly, children's cough can be treated with positional therapy. When a child coughs, parents can pick them up and gently stroke their back, which can effectively alleviate the child's pain. If it is at night, a child's cough is particularly likely to worsen because the secretions in the nose can flow into the throat when the child is lying down, causing itching in the throat. At this time, parents can place a pillow under the child's head to raise the child's head, which can effectively alleviate the child's pain.
Secondly, hot drinks can also be used. Give the child some warm drinks. This method can make the mucus in the child's throat sparse, effectively relieve the tension of the child's mucous membrane, and help the child expel phlegm from the throat. It is best to choose warm water or relatively warm rice soup and milk as beverages. You can also choose freshly squeezed fruit juice, but it is best not to choose apple juice and orange juice that are too stimulating.
