Patient's question:
The baby is two months old and seems to be breathing as if something is stuck; it also frequently cries and cannot sleep soundly. What could be the reason?Past treatment history and effectiveness: No treatment has been administered.
What kind of help is desired: Want to know what to do.
Doctor's answer:
If the child does not show other symptoms of a cold such as fever, runny nose, hiccups, or coughing, but only experiences a recurrence of breathing sounds, it is considered congenital laryngeal stridor. This is because the cartilage in the child's throat has not fully developed at birth.1. Congenital laryngeal stridor generally resolves on its own by the time the child is 2 to 3 years old as they grow. Parents do not need to worry too much.
2. Calcium supplements can be taken to help the cartilage in the throat develop fully.
