How to care for children with bronchial pneumonia

Patient's question:

No

Doctor's answer:

When caring for parents, attention should be paid to the following aspects:
1. Drink small amounts of water frequently. The water temperature should not be too hot to avoid irritating the throat.
2. During severe coughing, it is best to hold them up so that their upper body is at a 45-degree angle. At the same time, gently pat their back with your hand to loosen secretions stuck in the trachea, making it easier for them to cough them out.
3. Maintain air temperature. Temperature and cleanliness are very important. The room temperature should be kept around 20-26°C, with regular ventilation. The indoor humidity should be between 50% and 70%, which helps to thin mucus and facilitates coughing. If the air is too dry, mucus will stick to the tracheal walls and be difficult to expel.
