Some mothers are puzzled that their babies are so small that they snore when they sleep, parents must find it very interesting; some mothers even mistakenly think that the louder the baby snores, the better the sleep. However, you know what? If the baby’s snoring is getting louder and louder, it can’t be taken as a joke, it may be a sign of illness. You must first find out the reason why your baby snores and prescribe the right medicine. 1, small infants milk block sludge Some very small babies sometimes “snore”, which is not a disease, but because of milk block sludge. As a result of swallowing, some babies will have milk clots in the throat, on the one hand, so that babies do not eat milk smoothly, another result is to make the airway is not smooth, causing babies to snore when they sleep. The solution: after the mother feeds the baby, do not immediately put the baby down to sleep, but should pick him up and gently pat his back, you can prevent the baby from snoring due to milk clots. If the milk lump is more serious and has affected the feeding, you only need to put 1 to 2 drops of saline into the nasal cavity to dilute the milk lump. 2, tonsils enlarged tonsils also called tonsils, long in the pharynx on both sides, have the function of defense and resistance to external germs invasion. Some babies’ tonsils are too fat, so that both tonsils almost touch each other, blocking the pharyngeal cavity, resulting in poor inhalation, when the sleep will be open mouth whistling, grunting sound. In addition, the tonsils are an organ of the immune system, when the body’s reactivity is dysfunctional and resistance is reduced, the tonsils will also become inflamed and swollen. (1) Prevention of tonsillitis: The key is for children to exercise and consume a certain amount of protein, vitamins, minerals, etc. daily to strengthen their bodies and improve their immune system. (2) taking anti-inflammatory drugs: anti-inflammatory drugs can be taken under the guidance of a doctor, but should not be used for a long time by themselves, because the long-term use of certain nasal drops can cause rhinitis and make the baby dependent on drugs. (3) surgical excision 3, proliferative hypertrophy Proliferative body, also called adenoids,7 is a large piece of lymphatic tissue located at the top and back of the nasopharyngeal cavity, proliferating most vigorously at the age of 3 to 6 years. Normal proliferators have no effect on babies, but if the proliferators are too large, blocking the posterior nostrils, so that the air in and out of the nasal cavity is blocked, the baby sleeps, the gas from the trachea is forced to whistle out of the mouth, making a whistling sound. Countermeasures: (1) anti-inflammatory: take anti-inflammatory drugs under the guidance of a doctor, but should not be used for a long time. (2) to the regular hospital for surgical excision. 4, bronchial inflammation bronchial stimulation by inflammation when sputum increases, and infants lack the ability to cough and discharge sputum by the bronchial cilia swing transported to the pharynx can not be discharged, the formation of the relative narrowing of the airway, airflow through the vibration, and make a whistling sound. The sound in this case can be heard even in the daytime. Countermeasures: Timely treatment of bronchial inflammation, and pay attention to prevent its recurrence. 5. Obesity Obese children’s whistling tract is filled with fat around, so that the whistling can not be smooth, when the vibration frequency between the soft palate and the throat wall exceeds 30 Hz, snoring will occur. Countermeasures: Scientific and healthy weight loss without affecting health and without reducing resistance. Occasional snoring in babies is normal and can be adjusted by sleeping or patting the back, but if it is long-term snoring, you should promptly go to a professional ENT hospital for consultation and treatment, and I wish all the babies in the world to grow up healthy and happy!
