A 2-year-old baby doesn't have to go to school yet and plays at home every day. At this time, the baby has the most contact with family members. Parents can play more with the baby and pay more attention to their cooperation with the baby. 2-year-old babies are more active and may only walk for a short time. They find walking to be a fun thing and play wherever they go. Mischievous babies may keep moving, which can lead to loud breathing sounds. Is it because the baby is tired?
What's wrong with a 2-year-old baby breathing loudly during the day
It depends on whether the child has any other abnormal symptoms. If there are symptoms such as coughing and runny nose, it is necessary to seek medical attention to confirm whether there are respiratory infections or other abnormalities. In addition, if there are symptoms similar to snoring, it is necessary to confirm whether the child has nasal secretions or adenoid hypertrophy, and seek medical attention for confirmation. Other than that, no abnormalities are considered. However, it is important to observe any abnormalities in the baby. As long as there is no significant impact on breathing, the child may gradually return to normal as they grow older.
How to relieve loud breathing sounds in babies
1. Apply a hot towel to the child's nose
When a child's nose is blocked by secretions, the mother can use a hot towel to apply heat to the baby's nose. When the mucous membrane in the nose is heated by a damp and hot towel, it will contract, and at this time, the nasal mucus in the nose will turn into a watery liquid and remain, making the nose much clearer and smoother.
2. Remove the secretions from the baby's nose
Mom can observe the baby's nasal cavity in a well lit place. If there is secretion in the baby's nasal cavity, the mother can help the baby remove it. The specific solution is for the mother to use a cotton swab dipped in some baby oil or water to wet the cotton.
Then gently insert the moistened cotton into the baby's nasal cavity, making sure not to go too deep, not exceeding 2 centimeters of the nasal cavity, otherwise it will seriously damage the child's nasal cavity. At this point, the mother can gently use a cotton swab to remove the secretions from the nasal cavity.
Secondly, when using a cotton swab to collect secretions from the baby's nasal cavity, the mother must be careful not to let the child move around. Because this can accidentally injure the child's nasal mucosa.
3. Don't let the air be too dry
We suggest that before clearing a child's nose, they can inhale some moist air to moisten their nasal cavity. If there is no dedicated humidifier, mothers can let their children stay in the bathroom for about five minutes after taking a shower, so that the water vapor in the air is naturally absorbed into the child's nasal cavity. This situation should be particularly noted in winter, as dry air can easily make the baby's nose feel uncomfortable.
The baby is still young, parents should pay attention to protecting all parts of the baby's body. The nasal cavity is where the baby breathes. When taking a shower, you can clean the baby slightly, but the technique should not be too heavy to prevent harm to the baby. If the baby does not cooperate and move around, do not touch the baby. The baby's small nose is very fragile to avoid danger. The weather is more severe in summer, and there will be more sweating. Parents should pay attention to the hygiene of their babies.
