If a baby gets sick, parents will be particularly worried and very anxious. Coughing, fever, and colds are common conditions that babies are prone to. Coughing in babies is mostly caused by inflammatory viruses, and if left untreated after coughing, it can easily become severe. So, what should a 3-year-old baby do if they keep coughing?
The baby's persistent coughing may be due to pneumonia. At this time, the baby may still have a fever. You can measure the baby's temperature and then go to the hospital for a check-up. If it is confirmed to be pneumonia, then it is necessary to take the baby and cooperate with the doctor for medication treatment. Generally, intravenous infusion and nebulization therapy are more effective, but it is necessary to follow the doctor's advice and combine it with the baby's condition for treatment.
Babies who cough may feel uncomfortable and dry in their throat, so they need to drink some water to moisten their throat. Water can also remove bacteria from their throat, which can improve their condition. When a baby coughs, the room also needs ventilation, and placing a humidifier in the room is also very effective.
The baby's cough can be improved by eating loquat, snow pear stew, etc. Don't give the baby too cold food, which may aggravate the baby's cough. After a baby coughs, it is important to follow the doctor's instructions to avoid throat irritation. Parents also need to observe if their baby has any other symptoms and notify the doctor in a timely manner to prevent the baby's physical condition from getting worse.
