The reason why your baby coughs as soon as he sleeps1.Common cold. Your baby will cough more at night after a cold.

Because the baby is standing or sitting during the day, the body remains upright, and the inflammatory secretions will be swallowed, and it is not easy to cough. But when it's time to sleep, inflammatory secretions always flow to the trachea. When the trachea is affected by the desire to expel a "foreign body", it activates the body's protective action, causing the baby to cough.

2.Improper sleeping position. If your baby is not sleeping properly, the bronchial tubes or lungs will not breathe smoothly, and nasal secretions will easily flow into the lower part of the throat, causing itching in the throat and causing coughing to become worse during sleep.

3.Environmental factors. If your baby always sleeps in a room with closed doors and windows, he may cough because the air is cloudy or too dry.

4.Dry lungs, heat and yin deficiency. The baby's cough when he falls asleep may be "dry lungs, hot yin and night cough". The more significant symptom is a cough before going to bed, with white sticky sputum, white foamy sputum or sticky sputum.

5.Allergic cough. Allergic cough, also known as cough-variant asthma, is characterized by paroxysmal ** dry cough. The cough gets worse when your baby inhales chemical gases or fumes. This cough often flares up in the middle of the night or early in the morning.

6.Upper airway cough syndrome. If your baby doesn't cough during the day and coughs at night, he or she may have upper airway cough syndrome. Refers to the general term for cough induced by inflammation of upper respiratory tract diseases** or posterior flow of nasal secretions.
