Babies usually sleep very lightly without any special sounds. Sometimes babies may snore while sleeping, and there are many factors that can cause snoring. Sometimes it is mild and brief, and sometimes it is difficulty breathing. Parents should pay extra attention. So, will babies snore if they have nasal discharge?
Babies with nasal discharge may experience snoring, especially if it accumulates for a long time, which can cause respiratory obstruction. You can use physiological saline to soften nasal mucus for the baby, and then use a cotton swab to assist in cleaning to avoid snoring. Be careful not to use too much force when cleaning. In addition, it is also important to pay attention to other factors that may cause the baby to snore.
1. Inflammation of tonsils. The infection of the virus can cause swollen tonsils, which can affect a baby's normal breathing. Not only can snoring occur, but it can also cause difficulty swallowing, causing great pain to the baby. The main cause of tonsillitis is glandular hypertrophy, which can block the respiratory tract and affect the baby's external development over time.
2. Hypoxia. In summer, many mothers like to turn on air conditioning for their babies, but they are also worried about catching a cold, so they like to put a towel on their baby's forehead. This method is not advisable. Babies often move around while sleeping, which can easily block their breathing, leading to hypoxia and snoring.
3. Obesity. Obesity can cause an increase in throat fat, which can affect airflow, cause respiratory obstruction, and lead to snoring.
