The biggest fear for every parent is when their baby gets sick. In fact, for some babies, once their body gets sick, it is easy to leave sequelae, which to some extent affect their life and work. After all, babies have fragile bodies and cannot take too many medications, which can easily cause side effects. So, can babies eat oranges if they have bronchitis?
If the baby has bronchitis, it is not suitable to eat oranges because oranges are not easy to digest and may affect the baby's recovery from the disease. In fact, bronchitis is a disease caused by various external factors that lead to inflammatory reactions in the bronchial mucosa of the body. Generally, patients will experience symptoms such as coughing and diarrhea after being infected. Oranges have a sweet taste and can stimulate the pharyngeal nerves, causing or exacerbating coughing. Therefore, it is not recommended for sick babies to consume oranges.
Pediatric bronchitis, also known as "bronchiolitis", is mostly caused by infection with respiratory syncytial virus or other viruses that lead to bronchial lesions. It may also be caused by Mycoplasma pneumoniae in the baby's body, which causes necrotic mucosal cells to block the ducts and lead to pulmonary emphysema, resulting in bronchitis.
Generally, when babies first develop bronchitis, they may experience mild fever. If parents find that their baby's body temperature is below 38.5 ℃, they do not need to give the baby antipyretic drugs, but they need to give the baby other physical treatments. However, if the baby's body temperature is too high, it is necessary to provide physical cooling to the baby in a timely manner, that is, wet compress with a cold towel or wipe with warm water, and medication treatment may be necessary if necessary.
