Patient's question:
The baby's appetite has been good all along. However, a few days ago, while feeding, the baby choked on milk. The baby's nose and mouth were full of milk, with severe coughing and bluish lips, as well as rapid breathing. How can the symptoms of aspiration pneumonia in newborns be relieved?Doctor's answer:
Still hospitalized for newborn aspiration pneumonia, the child should only be discharged after full recovery. When discharged, the doctor will provide discharge instructions tailored to the child's condition. Since I haven't met the child, it's difficult to give you this advice. I vaguely remember that after two weeks of birth, the baby needs to take 400 units of vitamin D daily. Vitamin D aids in calcium metabolism. The patient should develop healthy daily habits, maintain a regular schedule, avoid smoking and alcohol, and increase physical activity to boost immunity and prevent the condition from recurring.
