There are many reasons for coughing, so it is important to distinguish the duration and nature of the cough and the presence of other accompanying symptoms before deciding how to treat it. First of all, if your baby has a frequent cough with clinical manifestations of coughing, nasal congestion, sneezing and runny nose, it can be diagnosed as an upper respiratory tract infection, which is commonly known as a cold. Babies should drink more water and can take oral medications for upper respiratory tract infections, such as pediatric cold granules and pediatric hot quick clear oral liquid, which are proprietary Chinese medicines to treat cough, runny nose, sneezing and nasal congestion caused by external wind and cold, to treat babies’ cough. Secondly, some allergies can also cause coughing in babies. Generally, this kind of cough is dry without phlegm, with an irritating cough, often with a long series of coughs, but without the accompanying symptoms of upper respiratory tract infection, and requires further consultation at the hospital to identify the allergens and carry out desensitization. Finally, bad habits may also cause coughing, such as not liking to drink water but only drinks, which cause coughing due to lack of water. There are also some foreign body irritations in the bronchi that can also cause coughing, which are generally uncommon clinically.
