Babies are innocent and lovely, and in the hearts of their parents, they are as adorable as angels. However, babies also have a side that worries parents, such as drooling. It is normal for babies aged one to two to drool, but if a baby at home still drools at the age of two, it is necessary to consider whether the baby has a disease. So, what causes a 2-year-old baby to drool?
1. Oral cavity: When a baby keeps drooling and is not very fond of eating, showing resistance, parents should consider whether the baby has oral ulcers. If it is found after examination that it is indeed an oral problem, attention should be paid to the baby's oral hygiene and cleanliness in daily life.
2. Breathing: When a baby drools incessantly, in addition to considering oral issues, it may also be due to some problems with the baby's respiratory system, such as drooling, colds or fever, which are generally manifested as poor breathing and nasal congestion.
3. Neurological: If a baby is two years old and still drooling, and their peers have slow development, slow walking speed, and low language ability, then parents should be highly vigilant. Because babies are likely to have mental illnesses such as congenital dementia, intellectual disability, cerebral palsy, etc. At this time, parents must take their children to the hospital for examination and timely treatment to avoid missing the opportunity.
When accompanying their children's growth, parents should not only pay attention to their daily diet, but also pay more attention to their hygiene and health condition. If it is not normal, they must seek medical attention in a timely manner.
