The baby's system function is not perfect, and their resistance is poor. When the season changes, they are prone to catching a cold and coughing. Coughing repeatedly is the most troublesome, and mothers are very worried. Watching the baby cough uncontrollably, mothers also feel very uncomfortable. Cough is actually a symptom, and diseases such as colds, pneumonia, bronchitis, etc. can stimulate coughing. If a baby coughs, they should first understand the cause. So what should I do if my baby has cough caused by pneumonia?
Pneumonia is a very dangerous disease for babies, and in severe cases, it may endanger their lives. Mothers must take it seriously. Even if the baby has pneumonia, mothers should not worry too much. Actively cooperating with treatment can also help babies recover. The symptoms of pneumonia are shortness of breath, cough, fever, and restlessness. It is important to remind mothers to pay attention to observing the baby's condition.
Mothers' specific methods:
1. Seek medical attention promptly when the baby is sick to determine the cause of their cough.
2. Maintain indoor hygiene, do not smoke indoors, and do not let kitchen fumes come into contact with babies. Try to minimize the stimulation of odors on babies.
3. Drink warm water more for babies to replenish their body fluids.
4. To prevent the baby from being exposed to cold air stimulation but also to alleviate indoor dryness, a humidifier can be placed in the baby's room.
5. If the baby has a lot of phlegm, you can give them a few drops of saline solution into their nasal cavity and then suck it out.
6. Parents should not give their babies medication indiscriminately, as cough suppressants are not suitable for infants and young children.
