People often say that babies will leave their mother's protection after half a year old, and their resistance will gradually decline at this time. Babies may be infected with symptoms such as colds or fever. Some babies may also cough and produce phlegm, and they can hear the sound of snoring clearly. What should I do if my baby has phlegm in their neck?
1. When a baby has phlegm that cannot be expelled in a timely manner, parents can pat the baby's phlegm, which can help the baby expel the phlegm through their lungs. This also belongs to a physical therapy method. At the same time, when taking phlegm, be sure to take it before the baby is breastfeeding, which can reduce the baby's spitting. When taking phlegm, it is also necessary to take pictures of both sides of the baby's lungs.
2. The indoor humidity and temperature also have a good effect on the baby's sputum, and it is best to maintain a constant temperature, with humidity around 55. At the same time, warm water can also be given to babies to drink appropriately, so that phlegm can be easily excreted by babies.
3. For the phlegm in the baby's throat, parents can also use clean gauze to wrap their fingers and reach into the baby's throat to gently help remove the phlegm and keep the baby's respiratory tract unobstructed.
4. You can also put hot water under the baby's nose and let the hot air flow through the baby's nose. The hot water should not be too hot, so it can be heated for 20 minutes each time. This method can make the baby's sputum thinner and reduce the redness and swelling of the respiratory tract.
