Treatment history and effectiveness: No matter what kind of assistance: How should the treatment be carried outDoctor's answer:
Neonatal laryngeal cartilage dysplasia, laryngeal softening, and congenital laryngeal bone dysplasia are related. As the child grows older, laryngeal softening will gradually improve.Medical advice: You should supplement with vitamin AD. Although calcium supplementation has limited effectiveness in treating laryngeal softening, it is still necessary to take calcium supplements. At the same time, if the child cannot eat at all and has difficulty breathing, a tracheal tube may be required. In such cases, the child may develop cyanosis in their extremities when crying because there is not enough oxygen. Please don’t panic. Generally, it will improve by the age of 3-5, and surgery is not recommended.
