When entering summer or autumn, the temperature is relatively hot and humid, but the air pressure is very low. At this time, children are prone to wind heat and cold, accompanied by coughing symptoms. There is phlegm in the throat, and the appetite will also decrease. So, what should children do with hot cough?
1. When a child has a cough, it is best to choose traditional Chinese medicine methods for treatment, because compared to Western medicine, traditional Chinese medicine has fewer side effects and higher safety. Generally, drugs are prescribed to reduce phlegm and cough, and doctors will also perform nebulization treatment based on the presence of phlegm. Through professional instruments, children can remove all phlegm from their throat, and it is simple and easy to operate, making it easy for children to accept.
2. Traditional Chinese medicine therapy can be used to regulate the symptoms of coughing in children. It is important to identify the correct acupoints and avoid excessive pressure during massage to prevent damage to the child's skin. During treatment, parents should give their children plenty of warm water, which can effectively stimulate the throat area. It is also important to maintain the temperature in the bedroom within the standard range and avoid being too hot and stuffy.
3. Mothers can also use their palms to pat their children's backs for about 10 minutes each time, so that the phlegm attached to the throat can be quickly cleared. During treatment, it is important to maintain a light diet, avoid giving children greasy foods, eat more nutritious green vegetables and fruits, avoid eating cold foods, and try not to use air conditioning and fans to avoid worsening the condition.
