Symptoms of body deficiency cough in children

summary

When a child has a cough, many doctors will prescribe cough medicine. If the respiratory tract is inflamed, they will prescribe anti-inflammatory drugs. However, many children have long-term cough symptoms, and sometimes they will have fever. Hearing the child cough always worries their parents. Identifying the voice of a child's cough is the key to finding out the problem. I would like to share with you my views on the symptoms of children's body deficiency cough.

Symptoms of body deficiency cough in children

A strong dry cough is very clear, similar to a seal's roar, and usually occurs in the middle of the night. It's different from the cough you've heard before. Other symptoms: the child's condition eased during the day and became severe at night. He may have a low fever. When his condition is serious, he will make a harsh wheezing when he inhales, which is similar to the sobbing of a child after a long cry.

Cough with phlegm, not accompanied by asthma or shortness of breath, regardless of day and night. Other symptoms: drowsiness, runny nose, tears and mild fever (usually no higher than 38.6 ℃). Suspect: common cold, viral infection of nose, sinuses, throat and main airway of lung. Usually, the cough symptoms will last for the whole cold process (about 7-10 days), and sometimes the cough time will be longer (about half a month to 20 days), but the symptoms will be relieved day by day.

Violent and hoarse coughing up to 25 times at a time. When children inhale hard, they will make a sharp roar. Other symptoms: before cough symptoms appeared, I had cold symptoms for about a week, but I didn't have a fever. The baby's condition may be more serious, and sometimes even the nasal discharge blisters. It can also cause spasms and other symptoms, and stop breathing when the child is tired.

matters needing attention

If the child has difficulty breathing or is unable to eat or drink, take him to the hospital immediately. Infants with bronchiolitis usually need to be hospitalized for oxygen and other assistance. If the child's symptoms are mild (just wheezing without dyspnea and other symptoms), parents can put a humidifier in the child's room to help remove the mucus from his lungs and make sure the child drinks enough water.
