How to deal with the problem of baby phlegm?
In the face of the problem of sputum accumulation in the baby, we can generally pat the sputum out of the baby's body by patting it, that is, gently patting the baby's back with hands. The purpose of doing this is to make the sputum in the baby's bronchus be discharged, because the baby's body organs are immature and the pipe diameter is very small. If there is inflammation and swelling, plus sputum, it may cause bronchial obstruction. Although there is the help of medicine and steam fog treatment, but the sputum is not easy to loose cough, so need to pat sputum may have a better therapeutic effect.
Parents should shoot at least four times a day for at least 15 minutes at a time. The more frequent the times are, the better the effect will be. It should be noted that parents should make their palms cup-shaped, that is, hollow, so that the hand can be closely combined with the back of the baby to cover some air. It is the best to produce air vibration sound when making sputum clasp. In sputum is to pay attention to posture, should let the baby lie on the bed, and with a pillow pad, the baby on the lap lying on the parents. We usually use head low and feet high posture, but remember to avoid head too low, reduce the comfort of sputum shooting process.

If too much sputum blocks the bronchus, it will not only affect the baby's daily diet, but also may affect the baby's breathing, making it difficult for the baby to breathe. Therefore, parents must pay attention to the baby's sputum accumulation, and hope that the sputum shooting method introduced above can help you, Let the sputum in the baby's trachea be discharged.
