Patient's question:
2-month-old baby has been coughing a few times a day since the full moon, and it has lasted for a month. Occasionally, they feel nauseous, but everything else is normal. Previously, a urine test showed no problems, and yesterday the doctor listened again, saying the trachea is normal. What could be the reason for this?Doctor's answer:
To the parent, based on the situation you described about your baby, the doctor's physical examination has not revealed any significant positive signs at present. Currently, the baby is experiencing intermittent coughing again. It is important to be vigilant about the recurrence of aspiration pneumonia in the baby. Since the baby is quite young, it is necessary to gently pat the baby's back after feeding to increase air expulsion. This is an effective way to prevent aspiration pneumonia from occurring again due to vomiting.
