Is it true that coughing up pneumonia?

  A. On the screen, the sensible lady comes, holding the medicine, and speaks: children with colds, the most fearful of coughing, for fear of coughing up pneumonia. But is this true?  It’s not true. A lot of pneumonia will have a cough, but a cough does not lead to pneumonia. Coughing itself is a protective mechanism of the organism that helps to cough out disease-causing phlegm or foreign bodies that invade the airways. Therefore, coughing is actually beneficial for the disease. Some patients who do not cough or have a weak cough reflex sometimes have a heavier respiratory disease and a longer recovery.  Second, the floor pig, you are so languid to couch stoneware in the door mourning people round for pneumonia, you can you up, you do say what is pneumonia.  There are many symptoms of pneumonia, and the degree of coughing is not positively correlated with the severity of the disease. Some coughs may not have pneumonia, while others that don’t may be very pneumonic. For parents who do not know about medicine, the most intuitive and accurate way to observe your child’s breathing is to carefully count the number of breaths your child takes in a quiet state (or in a sleeping state), and to carefully count the number of chest and abdominal heaves by opening the child’s stomach clothes. There are other indicators such as the child’s poor spirit and poor milk intake are also references.  Three, the floor pig, even if you are right. But the only thing in the world that can’t be disguised is love and cough, you make me, make my baby embarrassed!  A mild cough caused by a cold can quickly disappear as the cold heals. If the lesion reaches the bronchi or alveoli, the cough is usually more intense and lasts longer, especially in children with allergies. In recent years, due to the progress and promotion of nebulization technology, in tertiary hospitals, nebulization treatment is generally possible and effective, and most of them are able to avoid infusion, and even bronchitis and pneumonia are treated more smoothly than colds. However, in most hospitals below the tertiary level, the treatment of bronchitis and pneumonia in infants and children is still done by infusion and oral administration, which is very slow and the lesions may be delayed. Of course, nebulization for infants and children is also delicate, ultrasonic nebulization is not recommended, air compression nebulization is required, and the particles below 5μm should reach more than 50%, some hospitals or parents use inappropriate nebulization, sometimes it is counterproductive.  In children, cough medicine should be applied with particular caution. Premature and excessive application of cough medicine inhibits the cough reflex, making the discharge of disease-causing sputum obstructed, sometimes aggravating the condition, and cough medicine containing codeine is addictive, as reports of cough medicine addiction followed by drug addiction can be seen from time to time.
