Coughing and sweating are common problems for many babies with poor health, and they are also the main culprits for many babies eventually suffering from other major diseases. Although there are many ways to treat this disease, these methods cannot completely cure it in the end. So, if we encounter this situation, what should we do to solve the problem of coughing and sweating in babies?
What should I do if my baby has a cold, coughs, and sweats profusely
1. When babies sweat excessively, they lose a lot of water and salt. It is important to replenish their fluids in a timely manner, drink plenty of warm water, and prevent dehydration and electrolyte imbalance in the body. Parents can also give their babies some light salt water to replenish the lost salt in the body. Various freshly squeezed fruit juices and vegetable soups can be consumed to supplement vitamins for the baby.
2. In terms of diet, it is important to avoid letting your baby eat spicy or hot food, as it can cause them to sweat profusely. Generally, if you return to a light diet, there will be no more sweating profusely. For babies who are prone to sweating, planned physical exercises such as sunbathing, walking, etc. can be carried out to enhance their physical fitness and improve their adaptability. If a baby's physical condition improves, their sweating will decrease, surpassing any miracle drug.
3. Mild symptoms of sweating are present, and the baby does not show any obvious abnormal behavior. There is no need to worry excessively, and it is important to avoid vigorous exercise before bedtime.
4. Pathological sweating is usually caused by frequent sweating after the baby falls asleep at night, with appropriate clothing and no other physiological reasons. At this time, parents should take their babies to the hospital in a timely manner to diagnose the cause of the illness and receive targeted treatment.
What to pay attention to when taking care of a baby
1. Before meals: Dilute gastric juice, which is not conducive to food digestion and can cause a feeling of fullness.
2. Before bedtime: easy to wet the bed, wake up at night, and affect sleep.
3. When extremely thirsty: babies are prone to shortness of breath, sweating profusely, sudden drops in blood concentration, increased burden on the heart, and in severe cases, acute gastric dilation.
4. Don't think that drinking more water is more effective in reducing internal heat. Drinking too much water can increase the burden on a child's kidneys. As long as you feel thirsty, children will drink water. Don't force them!
Although many people may experience coughing and sweating profusely, this situation cannot be ignored when it occurs in the baby's body. After all, the baby's fragile body can easily leave hidden dangers. Also, if you cannot find many solutions to this problem, you may want to try the solutions mentioned by the editor.
