"What Are the Symptoms of Allergic Cough in Babies?"

Symptoms of allergic cough in babies may manifest as throat symptoms, chest tightness and shortness of breath, as well as respiratory, nasal, and ocular symptoms. It is recommended that parents promptly take their babies to the hospital for examination to avoid any delay in treatment. Here are the specific symptoms and corresponding treatments:

Allergic cough in babies primarily arises from exposure to allergens, triggering airway hyperreactivity. When babies come into contact with allergens such as pollen or dust, it stimulates the contraction of airway smooth muscles, leading to airway narrowing and thus coughing, often accompanied by throat itching and a feeling of foreign body sensation. For this, Montelukast Sodium Chewable Tablets may be prescribed under medical supervision.

After exposure to allergens like pollen or dust, babies may experience chest tightness and shortness of breath as the allergens stimulate airway smooth muscles, causing airway narrowing. Montelukast Sodium Chewable Tablets can be administered to alleviate these symptoms.

Allergies irritate respiratory mucosa, causing congestion, edema, and increased secretions. If secretions block the bronchi, it impairs airway patency, leading to coughing often accompanied by wheezing. In this case, Yu Mei Granules may be prescribed for treatment.

If allergens enter the baby's nasal cavity, triggering an allergic reaction, symptoms such as nasal congestion, runny nose, and sneezing may occur. Coughing may also arise when the nasal mucosa is irritated. Loratadine Syrup can be administered to address these nasal symptoms.
