What's wrong with a baby coughing and regurgitation
1. Coughing is a common symptom of lung diseases in babies, which is a protective reflex action of the respiratory tract. Whether caused by external factors or internal injuries leading to loss of lung function, coughing can be triggered. This indicates that coughing in babies is not necessarily a bad thing, it is a self-protection behavior of the body, and there is no need for parents to worry too much. Traditional Chinese medicine believes that cough can be mainly divided into two categories: external infections and internal injuries.
2. External cough is often caused by the body's perception of external pathogens. "The lungs are delicate organs that function for breathing, and the lungs are delicate organs that function for breathing. Their nature is downregulated, and they connect to the throat and open to the nose. They are covered in fur and fur, and are the main surface of the body, above the organs. External pathogens first invade the lungs. If the baby's body is not filled with qi, the skin is weak, and the external defense function is poor, when wind cold or wind heat invades, the pathogenic muscles are restrained, the lung qi is not released, the clearing function is neglected, phlegm grows, or they feel dry qi, the airway is dry, the throat is unfavorable, the lung fluid is burned, and phlegm and saliva can cause coughing.
3. Cough caused by internal injuries is mostly due to the baby's usual physical weakness or coughing caused by external factors. Over time, this can lead to the loss of vital energy. Causing lung yin deficiency and damage, lung qi inversion, or due to congenital weakness of the spleen and stomach in children, it is easy to be injured by milk and food, resulting in spleen and stomach deficiency and cold, neglect of health function, cessation of water and dampness, internal generation of phlegm and dampness, storage in the lungs, obstruction of the airway, and inability to clear lung qi, causing coughing. Overall, external cough originates from the lungs, while internal cough often originates from other organs and affects the lungs, leading to coughing.
