    The baby always has phlegm in his throat and sounds like a kitten panting. This condition is often associated with respiratory infections caused by pathogenic bacterial infections, chronic inflammation, allergies to certain substances, thyroid chondroplasia, etc. Therefore, the infant's condition should be determined based on previous respiratory infections, history of allergies, and accompanying symptoms, and symptomatic treatment should be made after the diagnosis is confirmed**.

    How is phlegm produced?

    As we mentioned above, children have phlegm in their throats, which can be caused by a cold. But in addition, there will be no sick phlegm, which is the mucus produced by respiratory cells, which can stick to the harmful bacteria in the outside air and protect the baby's respiratory health.

    Some people think that phlegm in a child's throat can cause respiratory infections, but this is not necessarily the case. Phlegm after a respiratory infection is just one of the reasons why a child has phlegm. But in fact, this reason is only caused by the respiratory tract in order to protect human health and clean up foreign bacteria.

    In addition, it may be due to allergies, pharyngeal achondroplasia, or airway hyperresponsiveness. The above are the causes of phlegm, and parents can analyze it according to the child's condition.

    Because the baby has phlegm in the throat, it may cause airway blockage, and these dangerous situations, parents will be anxious to find a way to eliminate the phlegm when they find it in the child's throat. However, some of these methods work and some don't. Let's take a closer look.

    An effective way to expelle expectoration.

    We should know that if phlegm is not expelled properly, it can harm your baby's health. For example, some parents choose expectorants, cough medicines, expectorant patches, etc. , some eat oranges, autumn pear paste and other home remedies.

    When a child coughs, we should find out the cause and prescribe the right medicine, instead of hearing the wrong opinion and using a sputum passenger. Giving your baby autumn pear cream can help your baby get a lot of water, but it can't dissolve phlegm. Methods like eating oranges are even more ineffective and may even cause throat irritation.

    Cough medicine is recommended. This method should be used with caution because the baby's throat is too thin, which may cause sputum suffocation. This kind of thing is real, such as in a shopping mall in 17 years, a child was suffocated to death by a sputum blockage in the airway.

    Methods such as expectorant only dilute sputum and are contraindicated.

    In addition, methods such as taking antibiotics may not be useful. Because we can't be sure if your child's sputum is due to a respiratory infection. It is not recommended to tell all parents whether their child has a respiratory infection by the color of the sputum. It is still necessary to pass the examination of the hospital in order to prescribe the right medicine for the child.

    If the cough is significantly worsened, shortness of breath, or accompanied by fever, poor spirit, loss of appetite, etc., it indicates that the inflammation of the respiratory tract is aggravated, and it is necessary to go to the hospital in time to improve the relevant examinations, such as blood routine, C-reactive protein, chest X-ray, etc., and choose the appropriate plan according to the doctor's advice.
