Due to their young age and lack of understanding, babies are prone to choking while eating. If a baby is choked and too young to speak, parents need to pay attention to their child's words and actions. What are the symptoms of a baby choking? How to determine if the baby has recovered from choking?
First, it is important to understand what the baby looks like when choked, so that you can quickly make a judgment when the baby is choked. After choking on food, babies usually cry loudly because they are not feeling well. In addition, babies may have hoarse sounds, shortness of breath, and their face and lips may turn purple. If this is the case, it can be determined that the baby is choking, and they need to be sent to the hospital for emergency treatment.
If the baby does not cough, has smooth breathing, normal complexion, no redness or purple, and sleeps quietly, it can be judged that the baby's body is very comfortable and there are no abnormalities. This is a sign of the baby's recovery. Parents should pay more attention to their babies in daily life and take good care of them, especially when they are playing with small toys. They should be careful not to let their babies put them in their mouths. Babies like to put small things in their mouths, thinking they are food, so they are prone to accidentally eating other things.
In particular, some hard foods, such as Duck wing tips and chicken wings, cannot be eaten by babies themselves. Because if a baby chews on it themselves, it is easy for bones to get stuck in the esophagus. When feeding babies, especially fish, it is important to check for fish bones. For meat, it should be chopped into small pieces.
