What kind of help do you want: How should I help the baby with manual sputum suction?
Doctor's answer:
When there is phlegm in the throat that is difficult to cough up, it can interfere with breathing. Most hospitals have specialized sputum extractors for patients. However, it is best not to perform sputum extraction independently at home, as improper extraction can damage the child's respiratory mucosa. It is recommended to go to a pediatric department or a children's hospital and have professional medical staff perform the sputum extraction.If the child has congenital laryngeal stridor, it is recommended to take digestive calcium and vitamin D. Additionally, if the child has tracheitis, antibiotic treatment should be considered.
