What to do if the newborn's voice becomes hoarse when crying

1. What are the reasons why babies’ voices become hoarse due to crying?

1. If you are hungry, please note that a long feeding time does not mean that the baby is full. If you are breastfeeding, you should observe whether the milk is sufficient. If you are feeding with milk powder, you should add a little more appropriately.

2. If the baby is hot, the heartbeat of the baby is much faster than that of an adult, and the capillaries are not fully developed, so the body temperature is higher than that of an adult. If the baby is dressed and covered with too many blankets, the baby will feel hot and uncomfortable. You can touch the baby's vest to see if there is sweating. If so, you should decisively reduce the clothes and bedding, but never let the baby be blown by the wind at this time, as it is easy to catch a cold;

3. If the baby is sick, it is probably because of a cold that causes difficulty breathing and discomfort, and the baby is prone to crying. You need to pay attention to whether the baby has symptoms such as runny nose and cough.

2. How to treat baby’s hoarse voice caused by crying?

1. Stay hydrated

It is recommended that parents should pay attention to letting their babies drink more boiled water to replenish body water, and reduce contact with cold food and spicy and irritating food.

2. Emotional stability

Generally speaking, the baby's body is in the development stage, and the vocal organs are not yet mature. In addition, the baby is easily excited and likes to shout loudly. When he is happy, he shouts to express his excitement. When he cries, he also cries loudly. These behaviors can easily cause swelling and inflammation of the vocal cords, so the baby is prone to hoarseness and sore throat.

When the vocal cords become inflamed, a large amount of congestion will cause the local membrane to thicken. The membrane is uneven and cannot close, making the voice hoarse or even lost.

3. Drug treatment

Babies have relatively low resistance and are easily invaded by bacteria, especially when seasons change and the weather changes drastically. They are prone to catching colds. Viruses can make babies sick and cause sore throats. Laryngitis is also one of the factors that cause hoarseness and sore throat in babies.

4. Emergency measures

Don't speak loudly. Young children have the problem of talking and shouting loudly. Parents should be more careful not to cause their babies to cry loudly for no reason. Reducing your baby's loud shouting can help protect your baby's throat.

3. Notes

When the seasons change, if the baby catches a cold or is attacked by a virus, his throat will become inflamed. Generally speaking, a week or so of hoarseness from crying is not a big problem. However, if this condition continues, it will cause pharyngitis or even diseases such as vocal cord nodules.
