When a baby coughs, many parents feel very anxious because they don't know what causes the cough. Some parents may find that the sound of their baby coughing is sometimes different, and there may be some gaps in the sound while the baby is coughing. What are the reasons for the child's cough and empty space?
Firstly, when a baby coughs, it makes an empty sound, which is not as simple as an ordinary cough for the baby. In clinical practice, this phenomenon is often seen in laryngeal edema or acute bronchitis attacks. Ordinary cough suppressants have no effect on children, and parents should take their children to the hospital for examination in a timely manner. The reason why babies have empty cough sounds is because the trachea or bronchi are filled with a large amount of secretions, but they cannot be discharged on their own, thus forming this phenomenon.
Secondly, the empty cough sound, which doctors refer to as the sound of breaking gongs during coughing. The sound of broken gongs is more common in the early stages of the disease. As the disease progresses, the sound of broken gongs will gradually decrease, but it will be replaced by more serious consequences. Both pharyngitis and bronchitis can cause serious complications, and parents should not take this phenomenon lightly, especially for children with pharyngitis who are prone to laryngeal edema. In terms of treatment, the main focus is on relieving respiratory spasms, clearing secretions, and killing bacteria and inflammation.
In summary, the sound of a baby coughing empty is not a good phenomenon, which means that the baby may have more serious diseases such as laryngitis or bronchitis. This is because the baby's bronchial tubes are filled with a large amount of secretions, and the airway is blocked, resulting in a "hollow" sound similar to a broken gong sound when coughing. In severe cases, it may also cause laryngeal edema, which is life-threatening.
