Babies have a relatively low immune system, so they are prone to illness during seasons of high disease incidence. Common symptoms include colds and coughs. Coughing babies are more likely to have phlegm in their throat, especially at night when they cannot fall asleep due to excessive phlegm. So how to relieve phlegm in babies with excessive phlegm in the middle of the night?
The presence of phlegm in the environment can also have a significant impact on babies. It is recommended to increase indoor humidity by using a humidifier, regularly wiping the floor, or placing wet clothes, towels, and other items indoors. Then, cover the baby's mouth and nose with a warm wet towel, which can improve the baby's condition to some extent. When the baby coughs, you can help them stand up and gently pat their back with your hand, which can help expel phlegm.
Babies with more phlegm can eat some food that can help to dissipate phlegm. Tremella can moisten the lungs and dissipate phlegm, replenish qi and clear intestines, strengthen the body's immunity, and help babies drink Snow fungus soup with rock sugar. Rock sugar snow pear water, honey snow pear, honey white radish soup, etc., can help to dissipate phlegm. If your baby has more sputum, you can change it through food. Then you can use a sputum aspirator when there is more sputum, but you need to pay attention not to damage the baby's throat, and move gently. Timely removing the sputum can prevent the baby from breathing.
