What should I do if my baby has tracheal inflammation and cough? What small details should we pay attention to?

In winter, if your baby catches a cold and is malnourished or has weak resistance, he may develop bronchitis. Coughing is one of the most typical symptoms of bronchitis. What should I do if my baby has bronchitis and coughs?

1. Drink plenty of water

Let your baby drink plenty of water, about 8-10 glasses of water a day. This helps relieve nasal congestion and prevents dehydration.

2. Maintain moist air

Place a cool-mist humidifier in your baby's bedroom or where he plays during the day, especially in dry weather. Humidified air can help your child breathe easier. But be sure to clean the humidifier according to the instructions, because if the humidifier is dirty, it will also spread bacteria into the air.

3. Salt water

If you can buy saline nose drops, give them to your baby to help relieve nasal congestion. Just put one or two drops in his nostrils and then use a nasal aspirator to suck out the mucus. If your baby really doesn't want to use a suction device, you may want to wait until he's older and can blow his nose on his own. In addition, you can also prepare some light salt water for your child to drip.

4. Get plenty of rest

Let your baby rest more. Cold weather, dust, and smoke can irritate your baby's respiratory tract, so keep your child's room clean, warm, and smoke-free to facilitate recovery.

5. Lean on the cushion

When your baby is resting and sleeping, let him lean against the cushion to help him breathe more easily.
