Cough is mainly a respiratory disease. Traditional diagnosis and treatment are mostly anti-inflammatory treatments such as antibacterial and antiviral, but it is really difficult to diagnose allergic cough early and treat allergic cough with antiallergic therapy. Many babies have intermittent cough for two or three weeks or even two or three months before they are diagnosed as allergic cough. Parents are really embarrassed when their children cough for months or even a year and a half. The hospital has gone a lot, but it still can't solve the child's cough. The child tried repeatedly and treated with anti-inflammatory drugs, but finally he could not solve the occurrence of repeated cough. How to treat children's repeated cough and allergic cough correctly?

There are five symptoms in a row, so be alert to allergic cough's variant asthma:

1, children's cough often occurs when cold and heat alternate or seasons alternate, or when there are more pollen in spring; 2. Children sleep especially in love sweating. They are dishonest. They don't like to sleep on their backs, they like to sleep curled up. They rub their eyes, nose or scalp. 3, children cough for a long time, generally more than 3 months, repeated attacks, severe cough, and paroxysmal; Although the child coughs, he doesn't have a fever. The sputum is thin and white and foamy. When they cough, they breathe more quickly. Generally, the baby's cough is more serious after sleeping at night than during the day, and the same is true in allergic cough.

Repeated coughing must be allergic cough? There are two possibilities for children to cough repeatedly.

Many parents agree that children's repeated coughs are related to allergies. In this regard, experts pointed out that children's repeated cough is not necessarily allergic. In fact, there are two possibilities:

One is infection. Children always have respiratory infections. "Many children in outpatient clinics often have tonsillitis for a long time and have not been well, but parents don't know." Experts say, how can the existence of this chronic inflammation make the child's cough better? In addition, children don't know how to keep warm, sweating while playing is easy to catch a cold, and it will also make children cough repeatedly. He believes that if children cough after a few days, they are more likely to be infected.

The second is allergies. Allergens are everywhere all year round, whether at home or outside. Experts say that children are exposed to an allergen, and this allergen persists, leading to allergic reactions, which can be manifested as repeated coughing. As far as spring is concerned, some children are allergic to pollen and cough hard.

Why is allergic cough high among children? What are the characteristics of allergic cough for children?

The manifestations and symptoms of allergic cough in different children may vary greatly, but they are often "cough when you say it, and stop when you say it"; The symptoms are morning cough, bedtime cough and post-exercise cough, or accompanied by runny nose, sneezing, no fever and ineffective antibiotic treatment.

First of all, children with allergic constitution have the largest asthma population in allergic cough, especially children with infantile eczema. At the age of 2-6, the probability of respiratory allergic symptoms such as rhinitis, allergic cough or asthma is high. Similarly, children with a history of food and drug allergy or a family history of allergies are more obvious.

Secondly, from the developmental physiology of children: from newborn to baby, because the respiratory muscles are not yet mature, the way of breathing mainly depends on diaphragm abdominal breathing. By the preschool age of 2-6, the chest gradually develops and the respiratory muscles begin to play a role, so chest breathing can be carried out. At this stage, children's nasal cavity is shorter and narrower than that of adults, with soft mucosa and rich blood vessels. The nasal congestion is obvious when allergic. The human trachea is covered with ciliated epithelium. Countless hairs move regularly, which can remove dust, bacteria and mucus that enter the respiratory tract like a brush and discharge them into the throat to cough up. However, children have poor cilia movement and weak scavenging ability, and are most prone to respiratory tract infection. It is more prone to respiratory tract infection or allergic diseases, such as repeated cough, cold, bronchial asthma, tonsil infection, bronchitis and pneumonia, as well as allergic rhinitis, allergic cough and even bronchial asthma. After the age of 7, you can become a chest-abdominal breathing and chest breathing like an adult.

Because respiratory allergy symptoms and infection symptoms are not easy to distinguish or even exist at the same time, respiratory allergy in this period is more likely to be ignored. Children's repeated colds or inflammatory coughs will be considered as children's poor health and easy to get sick, and even children's symptoms of allergic rhinitis will be treated as colds for a long time. Repeated use of cold medicine and anti-inflammatory drugs will cause more harm to children. This period should be combined with children's allergic history, such as infant eczema, bronchial asthma, food and drug allergy history. Some children cough, but because the cough is not serious, it is only paroxysmal cough, coughing several times in the morning and evening. After the failure of simple anti-inflammatory treatment, parents no longer pay attention to it, so that some children will suffer from bronchopulmonary infection for a long time in allergic cough, and repeated anti-inflammatory treatment will seriously affect their growth and development. Some children have complications such as otitis media, adenoidal hypertrophy, hearing loss and even serious consequences of surgical treatment due to respiratory allergies.

What should children do if they have allergic cough or cough repeatedly?

1, avoid contact with allergens allergic cough patients should avoid contact with dust mites, animal dander, oil fumes and chemicals and other substances with pungent odor, so as to reduce asthma induced by respiratory tract. Allergic cough patients at home, but also to maintain a good sanitary environment and air circulation. Patients should quit smoking and drinking to avoid respiratory tract irritation and cause illness.

2. Supplementing Probiotics In the clinical treatment in allergic cough, antibiotics are often used, which are mainly composed of antibiotics. Most antibiotics are broad-spectrum and kill a large number of probiotics in the human body while killing pathogenic bacteria. Therefore, the key to treat allergic cough is to reverse allergic constitution. Modern medical research on microecology has found a new strain group of antiallergic lactic acid bacteria. One or more strain compositions represented by Minyikang anti-allergic probiotics have the ability to improve anti-allergy, which is unknown in the prior art, and the method of regulating TH2 immune response which is overreacted due to allergy by enhancing TH 1 immune response. It is mainly to seek alternative anti-allergic therapy other than drugs, and to improve the ecological balance of intestinal microorganisms, the largest immune organ of human body, by using active and non-pathogenic microorganisms, so as to promote the secretion of interferon and regulate the activity balance of immune cells. In this way, allergens can not slowly combine with IgE antibodies in the body, so that allergic biochemical reactions no longer occur. Therefore, Minyikang probiotics can regulate allergic constitution, while drugs can only relieve symptoms, but not regulate allergic constitution.

3. Enhance your immunity allergic cough is a respiratory disease, but it is also directly related to your body immunity. If your immunity declines, patients will have serious symptoms, especially you should pay attention to prevent colds. Therefore, we should take part in more outdoor activities to enhance our immunity.

Experts clearly pointed out that when children cough, don't rush to use antibiotics. First of all, diagnose the cause of cough. For children who are prone to repeated coughs and colds, they should first avoid allergens, pay attention to balanced nutrition, and should not eat too much high-protein food; It is very important to pay attention to hygiene, prevent mites at home and avoid contact with pollen; Pay attention to the weather changes, with the increase or decrease of clothing, urticaria should wear loose and breathable clothing to avoid irritating the affected area; It is more important to prevent allergic rhinitis, allergic cough and allergic asthma in children than to treat allergic cough and asthma.
