If there is an abnormality in the baby's body, it will make parents anxious and worried. For example, if the baby is sick and always has phlegm but does not cough, parents will not know the specific cause and will be very panicked. Let's take a look together. What if the baby doesn't cough and has phlegm?
1. Reason for investigation: Babies are still young and are in the stage of drinking milk. Some milk may contain sugar, which can cause some saliva in the baby's mouth to be swallowed, ultimately forming phlegm. When parents breastfeed their babies, try to feed them full fat milk powder instead of sugar rich milk powder, as the phlegm in the baby's throat will gradually disappear.
2. Fire the baby: If the baby does not cough but has phlegm, it may be caused by the baby's internal heat. If a baby doesn't like to drink water regularly, it can lead to a buildup of fire in the body over time, causing constipation and a large amount of phlegm. Therefore, timely feeding of water to the baby is very important. In addition, it is important to pay attention to feeding the baby fresh green fruits, supplementing a large amount of water and vitamins, and promoting the recovery of the baby's body.
3. Humidified air: Babies always have phlegm, which may be caused by living in a too dry environment, leading to excessive heat and accumulation of phlegm in their bodies. So parents should pay attention to humidifying the indoor air and can purchase humidifiers to relieve their baby's phlegm.
