What to do about congenital laryngeal achondroplasia

Congenital laryngeal achondroplasia, also known as laryngeal chondromalacia, is caused by the weakness and relaxation of laryngeal tissues in infants and young children, the collapse of tissues during inhalation, and the shrinking of the laryngeal cavity. Generally, it will be found soon after the birth of the child, if the condition is not very serious, as he grows older, the laryngeal cartilage will gradually develop when he is two or three years old, and the laryngeal sound will disappear, but if the condition is more serious, there is a degree of dyspnea, it is still necessary to pay attention immediately, and bronchotomy surgery is required.

What should I do if my child's laryngeal cartilage development is not good?

1. Congenital laryngeal hypoplasia, when the child is quiet, there will also be a snoring sound, considering that it is caused by phlegm in the child's trachea, it is recommended to go to the hospital for a clear examination to determine the cause and then recuperate**.

2. Laryngeal chondrodysplasia generally gets better after 6 months. Calcium deficiency can cause occipital baldness, but occipital baldness is not necessarily deficient in calcium, and a comprehensive physical examination is required to adjust the amount of calcium. Laryngeal achondroplasia refers to the lack of calcium during the baby's fetal period or after birth, resulting in unsound laryngeal cartilage development, which may be depressed with breathing, so the baby may have symptoms such as choking, coughing, and suffocation especially when pumping milk.

3. It is recommended to pay attention to keeping warm, avoid colds, etc., take the baby outdoors more, bask in the sun, mother and baby can supplement calcium intake, with the growth of age and calcium intake, laryngeal cartilage will slowly develop normally, so you don't have to worry.

What are the symptoms of poor laryngeal cartilage development in children?

Laryngeal achondroplasia may be due to congenital causes, but more often it is due to calcium deficiency. Therefore, in order to prevent the occurrence of respiratory obstruction caused by laryngeal chondrodysplasia, it is necessary to pay attention to calcium supplementation.

Airway obstruction is a very dangerous disease for infants, if the degree is relatively mild, then it can be cured naturally, if the situation is more serious, and not timely, then it is likely to lead to the death of suffocation of the baby, therefore, parents should keep in mind the above-mentioned symptoms, even if the baby is in a similar situation, even if the baby is taken for medical examination, in order to win the best time, to avoid endangering the baby's life.

Laryngeal achondroplasia usually doesn't get better so quickly, so what about the most severe laryngeal achondroplasia months?

Laryngeal achondroplasia is the most serious at 6 months, laryngeal chondromalacia is a congenital dysplasia problem, but the symptoms of this condition are generally not very serious, including a certain degree of dyspnea, laryngeal stridor, obvious cases can appear suprasternal fossa, supraclavicular fossa, and epigastric intercostal space in the inhalation of the depression, called the three retraction sign, is a typical manifestation of dyspnea during the inspiratory period, but also a common manifestation of laryngeal chondromalacia. However, these conditions usually do not have significant breath-holding and hypoxia, so it can be observed that most of them can be gradually relieved and healed as the child grows older.

For laryngeal achondroplasia, it should also be checked for calcium deficiency, and if so, calcium supplementation should be taken in time. While supplementing calcium, it is also necessary to pay attention to more sun exposure to promote calcium absorption. If there are other abnormalities, it is necessary to consult a doctor or go to the hospital in time, and then targeted**.

Clinical features: growth retardation; large head and large forehead; The trunk is long and the limbs are short, the upper part is measured, and the lower part is measured; normal intelligence; There are special changes in the skeletal x-ray (dumbbell type).For details, it is recommended to consult the doctor of Wuhan Modern Obstetrics and Gynecology in Qiaokou.
