What to do if a child has a dry cough? How to treat a child's dry cough

Baby cough is a common disease in children's growth. However, parents should also know the cause of the baby's cough so that they can prescribe the right medicine and recover in time. Coughs are also divided into many types, among which the most common is baby dry cough. What should we do when we encounter baby dry cough? Let's take a look.

If your baby has a dry cough, we can take the following measures:
1. Drink plenty of water. Drinking enough water is good for the removal of phlegm. At the same time, drinking water can improve blood circulation, quickly excrete harmful waste or toxins from the body, and help the body recover.
2. Exercise more often to strengthen your physical fitness. Wash your face and bathe with cold water from early autumn, exercise more to strengthen your physical fitness and thus enhance your resistance.
3. Eat a light diet and avoid raw, cold and greasy food. The diet of a baby with a cough should be light, with more fresh vegetables and fruits, but not too much, which is conducive to the discharge of phlegm.
4. Keep the indoor air fresh. Open windows regularly for ventilation and keep the indoor temperature moderate. Breathing fresh air helps to discharge phlegm.
In order to prevent the baby from having dry cough, we should also do a good job of prevention:
1. Adjust the room temperature and add or remove clothes and blankets in time . The appropriate temperature is 25-28℃, which is called neutral temperature. It is difficult to maintain this temperature under normal conditions, but the room temperature can be kept from being too high or too low. Open and close doors and windows appropriately to avoid crowding indoors. Many parents believe that children are definitely more afraid of cold than adults. They often cover their children too thickly and tightly regardless of the season, indoors or outdoors, and prevent them from feeling the slightest bit of cold. As a result, the body's ability to regulate is poor and its resistance is low.
2. Pay attention to adjusting your diet . Eat more fresh fruits and vegetables. Avoid meat, greasy food, and spicy food.
Children's dry cough must be taken seriously. If symptoms of dry cough occur, the above measures must be taken and the best treatment time must not be delayed.
