Phlegm in the throat of newborns is usually caused by a variety of reasons such as respiratory infections or laryngeal cartilage dysplasia. If the phlegm is not removed in time, it can accumulate in the throat and form a new source of disease. Because newborns are relatively small and many oral medications cannot be used, there are a number of ways that parents can help their newborns expel phlegm. Because newborns will not cough up phlegm, phlegm will generally be gathered in the throat, parents can pick up the baby so that the baby lying on its side, and then half a fist gently beat the baby’s back, the direction should be from the bottom to the top, from the outside to the inside of the beat, the palm should be empty, each time to beat 5-8 minutes, 3-5 times a day to shoot. This method can not only effectively help the baby’s lungs and bronchial tubes in the phlegm discharge, and can also promote blood circulation in the lungs and heart, but in the process of patting must pay attention to the strength, the force can not be too large. You can also feed the baby some warm water, can be very good dilution of phlegm inside the throat, is conducive to the baby out of the throat inside the phlegm, sleep as much as possible to take the side of the way. In addition, because the newborn’s gland secretion is more exuberant, so the nasal secretion will be more, this time the parents can use wet cotton swabs to carefully get the boogers out of the nasal cavity, you can also use sea salt water to clean the nasal cavity regularly, use the special clip for babies to clip out. Children with more serious symptoms need to go to the hospital for examination and treatment.
