I believe many mothers have encountered this problem: when feeding medication to their babies, they will be very uncooperative, and even cry loudly and refuse to take the medicine. Therefore, for babies who find it difficult to cooperate with medication, if they cough, mothers will consider doing nebulization. However, some babies who have undergone nebulization experience increasingly severe coughing. What's going on?
Baby fogging is getting worse and worse. What's going on
Firstly, if the baby coughs more severely after nebulization, it is possible that the baby has allergic cough caused by an allergic constitution, or wheezing bronchitis. Usually, it can continue to be nebulized, and in the acute phase, it can be nebulized for a relatively long time. If there is no improvement, continue treatment until symptoms are under control.
Secondly, if the baby coughs more severely after nebulization, it is possible that there is too much phlegm, and the phlegm becomes thinner and wriggled out after nebulization. Pay attention to observing whether the baby's body temperature is normal, and give the baby plenty of water to dilute phlegm when coughing and spitting. Additionally, in addition to nebulization, babies can also be given appropriate amounts of rock sugar and pear water.
Baby nebulization should not exceed a few days
Baby nebulization usually takes 3-7 days, depending on the condition. Nebulization inhalation has a good effect on treating respiratory infections, eliminating inflammation and edema, relieving spasms, diluting phlegm solution, and helping to remove phlegm. However, if the baby continues to use nebulization for more than a week without much effect, it is recommended to consult a doctor to see what the child's condition is before making a decision on whether to continue treatment.
Although nebulization is relatively easy for babies and their cooperation is also higher, not all babies will have an effect when nebulized, as everyone's body is different. If the baby's nebulization is ineffective, it is recommended that mothers promptly switch to other methods, such as injections or medication.
