Is snoring normal in children's sleep

summary

My colleague Sister Zhang often tells me about her baby snoring when she sleeps. I ask if it's because the child is too tired in the kindergarten during the day, so she snores. She says that she feels that the child is not snoring normally. When she goes to sleep, she opens her mouth and breathes. Moreover, the child's immunity and resistance are very poor. As long as the weather changes, she catches a cold immediately, She felt that something was wrong, so she took her child to the top three hospitals in provincial cities. The doctor diagnosed the child as having tonsillar enlargement, and it was OK after the operation. Let me tell you something about it.

Is snoring normal in children's sleep

First: if a child is catching a cold or snoring just after catching a cold, this is a normal phenomenon. It's normal for children to snore when they are sleeping or tired during the day, and snore at night. What parents need to pay attention to is that their children are not energetic during the day, they always wet the bed at night, they feel that breathing is very hard when they sleep, sometimes they open their mouth to breathe.

Second: when children are growing up, they need deep sleep. If they snore during sleep, it means that the quality of sleep is not good, and the secretion of growth hormone will decrease, which will affect their intellectual development for a long time. There is a long mouth panting, not through the nose, then the development of the nasal cavity is poor, and when you grow up, it will easily lead to other diseases.

Third: if parents and friends find that their children snore abnormally, they'd better take their children to the Department of Otolaryngology to have a look and take a look with a micro laryngoscope. If it's because of the blockage in the nose, leading to ventilation, or hypertrophy of tonsil and adenoid, they should have an operation immediately. Generally, the operation takes an hour, or one and a half hours.

matters needing attention

When the child is three to six years old, the proliferation of tonsil and adenoid lymphoid tissue is the most obvious. Once the enlargement or blockage is found, it needs to be done as soon as possible, so as not to affect the child's growth and development. Pay attention to the nursing of children after operation.
