Parents take care of their babies very carefully and are always worried that they may have any abnormalities. But there are still times when one is not paying attention, such as when a baby can take food to eat on their own, and some small foods get stuck in the trachea. So, what are the symptoms of a baby's food getting stuck in the trachea?
When a baby gets something stuck in their trachea, they may experience symptoms of coughing and choking on the trachea, with the most prominent symptom being severe coughing. At this point, parents should not panic and should not attempt to dig out foreign objects with their hands. They can use the reverse back method to quickly remove the foreign objects. Parents can immediately lift their baby's legs, causing the baby's head to droop, while patting the back. This way, foreign objects can be eliminated by their own gravity or coughed up by the impact of gas in the chest cavity during coughing.
If this method is ineffective, parents should take their baby to the emergency department of the hospital for treatment immediately. The doctor will provide targeted treatment based on the baby's condition, which can be done by using bronchoscopy or tracheotomy.
When taking care of a baby, it is important to be careful. If you are too busy to handle it, you should let the baby play on their own and take away any dangerous things to avoid any abnormalities. In addition, it is important to note that the baby is still young and should be careful when breastfeeding. Do not let the baby breastfeed too quickly or in a hurry, as this can lead to coughing and endanger the baby's health.
