Patient's question:
Sputum-thinning home remedies or harmless drugs First question supplement: The child is 7 months old. A while ago, they had a slight cough, and I fed them steam-cooked pears with Fritillaria cirrhosa. After that, the cough stopped. Then, whenever the child makes a sound, it seems like there's something blocking their throat. At night, they don't make any sounds while sleeping, only making sounds while playing during the day.Doctor's answer:
Make the palm into a hollow shape, gently tap the baby's back on both sides of the lung area with a little force, alternating left and right. Move from the lower part of the lungs upward to help disperse the mucus in the lungs towards the throat, preventing it from accumulating in the lungs. Tap more frequently; this makes it easier for the mucus to be expelled through the esophagus and swallowed by the baby into the stomach, resolving the issue. Since the child is affected by neonatal diseases, the mother must take the child to the hospital for timely medical treatment to avoid blindly using medication to alleviate symptoms. For parents, it is essential to promptly monitor the child's condition and do their best to help the child receive timely treatment for the illness.
