Pediatric bronchitis is the most common type of pneumonia in childhood, also known as lobular pneumonia in children. Due to its involvement of the bronchial wall and alveoli, it can cause various clinical symptoms such as fever, cough, and shortness of breath. And pears, which are commonly consumed as fruits, have the effect of relieving cough and resolving phlegm. Can children with bronchopneumonia eat pears?
1. Children with bronchopneumonia may experience various adverse symptoms such as coughing and phlegm. At this time, it is recommended to give children some pears, which have certain therapeutic effects on cough and phlegm. You can also boil some pear water for children to drink, which can not only replenish water, but also have a better effect on reducing phlegm compared to eating pears directly.
2. However, for children with bronchopneumonia, simply eating pears cannot fundamentally solve the inflammation problem, so it is necessary to follow medical advice and take regular medication for treatment. Moreover, pears are only effective in treating dryness and heat in the lungs, as well as phlegm heat cough symptoms. They have a good therapeutic effect. If a child coughs with sticky white phlegm or a lot of phlegm, some phlegm resolving drugs should be used in combination for treatment.
3. In addition, during the treatment of pediatric bronchopneumonia, it is important to encourage children to drink water frequently and in small amounts. The water temperature should not be too hot to avoid irritation to the throat. When sleeping, it is important to cover the bedding according to the temperature to avoid exposure to cold and stimulation. If you have shortness of breath or difficulty breathing, you can adopt a semi recumbent sleeping position and frequently change positions to reduce pulmonary congestion and prevent complications such as atelectasis.
