Daily care of acute laryngitis in children

In daily care for children with acute laryngitis, attention should be paid to keeping the air moist, avoiding throat irritation, and paying attention to the baby's breathing and general condition. If breathing difficulties occur, seek medical attention immediately.

Acute laryngitis is often caused by a viral infection, and is manifested by night coughs, high-pitched hoarseness, and heavy breathing sounds. Parents can relieve symptoms by keeping the indoor air moist during care, such as using a humidifier or hot water steam to help moisten the baby's respiratory tract. Avoiding contact with irritants such as smoke and dust is the key. If the baby has a fever, you can use ibuprofen or acetaminophen to reduce the fever as prescribed by the doctor; in terms of diet, you should provide warm and light liquid food, such as rice soup and vegetable soup, which will help relieve throat discomfort. If the cough is severe, you can try physical cough suppressants, such as patting the back to promote sputum discharge, but be careful to avoid using drugs without the guidance of a doctor.

During the nursing process, special attention should be paid to observe changes in the condition, especially at night. If there are signs of suffocation such as cyanosis of the lips, increased breathing rate or chest depression, the baby should be taken to the hospital immediately. During the recovery period, it is still necessary to avoid irritating foods, keep warm, strengthen the body, and prevent colds to reduce the risk of recurrence.
