What should I do if my breathing is a bit rough when sleeping?

Patient's question:

When taking a nap, his breathing is a bit rough. A few days ago, he went to the pediatric otolaryngology department of the children's hospital, and they said his rough breathing was nothing serious. Although he has a slight allergy, they didn't prescribe any medication. After coming home, he still breathes roughly while taking a nap in the evening, jumps, and sometimes gets a bit startled. His palms sweat. What could be the reason, and how should he be taken care of? (Male, 1 year and 11 months)

Doctor's answer:

According to the symptoms you mentioned, the baby's wheezing and rough breathing generally have two possible causes. First, the baby is relatively overweight, which obstructs the airway. Second, the baby has inflamed and thickened nasal turbinates due to cold, which also obstructs the airway. Second, the baby is startled, and fear disrupts the Qi, causing occasional rough breathing that recurs at irregular intervals, and the baby may twitch or startle during sleep. It is recommended that you carefully observe and refer to the above speculations, combining the baby's daily behavior to determine additional treatment. If it is related to being startled, focus on emotional comfort and more affectionate care for the baby, and the Monza Powder can be taken for treatment.
