How is child midnight cough to return a responsibility?

First: the main cause of cough in the middle of the night has a certain relationship with the body's resistance. Persistent or recurrent severe cough, mostly paroxysmal, is more obvious in the morning. When the baby is active or crying, the cough aggravates. When the child encounters cold air, he likes to sneeze and cough, but there is little sputum. Cough at night is more serious than that during the day. Cough lasts for a long time, usually lasting for 3 months, especially in pollen season. Cough: pay attention to usually try not to let the child cold, should go to the hospital to consult a doctor. For babies with family history of asthma and other allergic diseases, they should pay special attention to cough, seek medical treatment as soon as possible, make a definite diagnosis, and take active treatment to prevent the development of asthma.

Second: if children have no cough, runny nose, sneezing or fever and other symptoms before, they suddenly have severe cough, dyspnea and bad face. Especially for younger children, they may put some foreign body into their mouth when adults don't pay attention, and accidentally enter their throat or trachea. Cough: after inhaling foreign body, parents should encourage children to cough, do not use their hands to pick in their mouth, in order to prevent foreign body digging deeper and deeper, so as to completely block the airway. If there is no cough, children cough or asthma repeatedly, indicating that the foreign body has reached the lower respiratory tract, should immediately send children to the hospital to take out the foreign body in time.

Third: in addition to the common respiratory viruses and bacteria, Mycoplasma pneumoniae, Chlamydia pneumoniae, pertussis bacillus and Mycobacterium tuberculosis are also the pathogens causing children's chronic cough. When the symptoms of respiratory tract infection, such as fever, sore throat, runny nose, disappear, cough symptoms continue for more than 4 weeks, cough after infection should be considered. The principle of treatment is to choose appropriate antibiotics according to the possible pathogens in the acute stage, and macrolide antibiotics, including erythromycin, azithromycin and clarithromycin, should be used in patients with Mycoplasma or chlamydia infection. If cough is prolonged, measures should be taken for airway hyperresponsiveness.
