Babies with allergic rhinitis are prone to coughing

Babies with allergic rhinitis are prone to coughing, which may be caused by allergen stimulation, nasal secretion backflow, throat inflammation, etc. It is recommended that parents take their babies to the doctor in time and carry out targeted treatment under the guidance of the doctor.

1. Allergen stimulation: If the baby is allergic to pollen, dust mites and other substances, he may have an allergic reaction after contact, causing symptoms such as nasal congestion and sneezing. When the nasal mucosa is irritated, it may cause an increase in nasal secretions, resulting in the above symptoms. At this time, you can use antihistamines for treatment as prescribed by the doctor, such as loratadine granules, cetirizine hydrochloride syrup, etc.

2. Backflow of nasal secretions: When babies have allergic rhinitis, it will cause congestion and edema of the nasal mucosa, which will cause nasal congestion. When the secretions in the nasal cavity cannot be discharged from the body normally, they will flow into the throat through the Eustachian tube, resulting in coughing symptoms. At this time, you can use budesonide inhalation aerosol, mometasone furoate nasal spray and other drugs for treatment under the guidance of a doctor;

3. Inflammation of the pharynx: If the baby suffers from allergic rhinitis and pharynx inflammation at the same time, symptoms such as sore throat and difficulty swallowing will occur. When the throat is stimulated by inflammation, it will cause coughing symptoms. At this time, you can follow the doctor's advice to use drugs such as amoxicillin granules and cefixime granules for treatment.

The above symptoms may also be caused by factors such as gastroesophageal reflux. If the baby's discomfort symptoms continue to persist or worsen, you need to go to the hospital's pediatric department for treatment in time and actively cooperate with the doctor for targeted treatment.
