Babies have poor physical fitness and low immunity, so they are prone to respiratory diseases during strong weather changes and are also very susceptible to viral infections, causing viral diseases. If the baby develops bronchitis, they will experience coughing problems, and the coughing will become even stronger at night. What should I do if my baby coughs while lying down but doesn't cough when picked up?
People with a cold cough more severely when sleeping at night because when lying down, secretions can enter the lungs, causing some irritation to the trachea and making coughing more intense. Picking up the baby can effectively alleviate this problem. In this case, you can elevate the baby's pillow or hold the baby to sleep, which can prevent the baby from coughing while sleeping.
Coughing is an instinct of the body to expel toxic substances from the body. Parents should be careful not to take medication immediately when they notice their baby coughing. They can observe the cause first and treat cough according to the reason. If your baby has a severe cough, you can let them smoke some water vapor before going to bed, which can effectively alleviate the cough problem.
Nebulization is a method of treating cough that can directly and effectively administer medication to the baby's throat. It is recommended to use regular hospitals for nebulization. In terms of diet, give your baby light food and encourage them to drink plenty of water. You can squeeze some fruit juice or vegetable juice for your baby, which is beneficial for the treatment of their illnesses.
