Question
The baby has had phlegm in the throat for over two months, and there has been a sound in the throat during naps at night in the past two days. Previous treatment and effects: Haven’t seen a doctor yet. Desired assistance: Hope to remove the phlegm from the baby’s throat.
Answer
If there are no other abnormal symptoms, no cough, and the baby is in good spirits during the day, you can temporarily observe and not need treatment yet. Don’t worry. Normal children may also have phlegm secretion and may produce phlegm sounds again. These situations can be appropriately treated with oral fresh bamboo clearing phlegm medication. Since infants cannot cough up phlegm themselves, it will be naturally expelled along with the movement of the respiratory tract’s cilia and eventually swallowed. Some children may have a phlegm sound for a long time after recovering from a cold, and this situation will gradually disappear on its own, usually not interfering with anything. Survival care:
