Patient's question:
These days, my boss said I'm not in good spirits, which has affected my work performance. Actually, I didn't mean to, either. I often can't sleep at night, and sometimes feel anxious and uncomfortable. If it gets worse, I'm worried it will affect my health and work. Regarding newborn baby pneumonia with excessive phlegm, how should it be handled?Doctor's answer:
Improve the baby's living environment Indoor air should be fresh, with proper ventilation. When opening windows, make sure to close doors to avoid drafty air. The room temperature is best maintained between 18~22℃; maintain appropriate humidity, and use a humidifier or place a water tray or damp cloth on the radiator in winter. Excessive dryness in the indoor air can hinder phlegm discharge and make breathing even more difficult. Pay attention to respiratory care Ensure that clothing and bedding do not obstruct the baby's breathing. Frequent turning and changing of positions for the baby can increase lung ventilation, reduce pulmonary congestion, and promote phlegm discharge. If dry crusts are present in the baby's nasal cavity, use a cotton swab dipped in water to remove them to prevent nasal blockage and breathing difficulties.
