How does child bronchitis treat?
summary
Bronchitis swells and stimulates your child's air passages. This stimulation may cause him to cough or have other respiratory problems. Bronchitis usually begins with other diseases, such as a cold or flu. The disease spreads in your child's nose and throat, trachea, and respiratory tract. Acute bronchitis lasts about 2 weeks and is usually not a serious disease. Acute bronchitis is the most frequently caused type of germ called virus. It can also be caused by other microorganisms, such as bacteria, yeasts or fungi. Let's take a look at the following.
How does child bronchitis treat?
First: cough medicine helps to relax mucus in the child's lungs and make it easy to cough up. It helps him breathe more easily. Ibuprofen or acetaminophen: ibuprofen and acetaminophen are antipyretic drugs to reduce fever in children. Ask the doctor how much medicine you should prepare for your child and how often.
Second: your child has acute bronchitis and needs to drink more fluids. Liquid is good for keeping the air moist and coughing up sputum better. Use a humidifier and use a cold fog humidifier to increase moisture in the air at your home. This may make it easier for your child to breathe and help reduce his cough.
Third: doctors can be advised to provide one or more inhalers for children to help them breathe more easily and cough less. The inhaler gives the drug in a mist form so that your child can breathe into his lungs. Ask your child's medical staff to show them how to use inhalation properly.
