Newborns have poor body resistance, and microbial infections such as bacteria and viruses, external stimuli and inhalation may lead to coughing. For newborn coughs, we can relieve them in the following ways: First, feed the newborn with a small amount of water several times: When a newborn coughs, parents should increase the amount of water the child drinks. You can moisten your child’s respiratory tract by feeding water several times in small amounts, which will dilute the phlegm in the throat and reduce coughing, but you should also be careful not to drink too much and increase the burden on your baby’s kidneys. Second, regulate the indoor environment: The newborn’s respiratory tract is very sensitive to the stimulation of the external environment, which can be too dry or cold to stimulate the newborn’s respiratory tract and cause a cough. At this time, you can ventilate more and keep the room at the right temperature and humidity to help your newborn’s cough heal. Third, pat the back appropriately: change the baby’s position to promote phlegm drainage, which helps reduce the occurrence of cough. Fourth, the condition of newborns changes quickly: if the symptoms do not ease in 1 or 2 days or if there is fever or poor spirit, you need to seek medical attention and give appropriate treatment under the guidance of a doctor. Newborns are young and their condition changes quickly, so they need to seek medical attention in time and should not be given medication without permission to avoid adverse reactions.
