I believe many people have phlegm stuck in their lungs that cannot be cleared, not only adults but also infants. This will make the child very uncomfortable and even affect breastfeeding and sleep. At this point, parents need to adopt some methods to solve the problem. So, what should a baby do if they cough up phlegm in their lungs?
1. Parents can use sputum tapping to expel their baby's phlegm. Parents should pat their children's backs from bottom to top. Parents can have their baby lie on their forearm and pat it with their other hand. When shooting, the force needs to be slightly stronger to achieve the desired effect. If the baby has phlegm, parents should take careful care to avoid the phlegm blocking the child's respiratory tract.
2. When a baby coughs and has phlegm, they can consult a doctor to prescribe some expectorants or undergo nebulization treatment. This can make the respiratory tract more moist, thereby diluting phlegm and making it easier to expel. Parents can also replenish water for their babies, which has the effect of diluting phlegm.
3. Attention should be paid to the ventilation of the room, and the indoor air should be kept fresh. It is best to maintain the indoor humidity between 50% and 60%. Parents should not smoke in the room to avoid making their children's respiratory tract difficult, which will make it more difficult to expel phlegm.
