Infants taking an occasional long breath may be caused by mood factors, pneumonia, bronchial asthma, myocarditis and other factors.
1. Mood factor: If infants are too nervous and fearful of unfamiliar environments, and are in such a mood for a long time, it will trigger anxiety, which will lead to the symptom of taking a breath occasionally.
2. Pneumonia: Because the body resistance of infants is weak, when bacteria or viruses invade the lung parenchyma, it will lead to inflammation of the lungs, which will cause breathing difficulties and lead to the symptom of taking a breath occasionally.
3. Bronchial asthma: if the infant inhales cold air, it will cause spasmodic contraction of the bronchial smooth muscle, thus triggering the symptom of occasional long breath.
4. Myocarditis: If an infant is infected with influenza virus, cytomegalovirus, etc., the virus can irritate the heart muscle and cause damage, which can lead to respiratory distress, resulting in the symptom of occasional breathlessness.
There may be other reasons for babies to have occasional breathlessness, so it is recommended to go to the hospital in time, complete the examination to clarify the cause of the disease, and then give targeted treatment or therapy under the guidance of the doctor.
