How to address baby coughing and spitting up milk
Disease description:
These days, the baby has been coughing constantly for unknown reasons, and each time he coughs, he spits up milk. I would like to ask how to deal with this situation?

The issue of babies coughing and spitting up milk usually has multiple causes:
1. Preventing choking on milk: Keep the baby's head slightly elevated during feeding, avoid feeding while lying flat, and hold the baby upright after feeding, gently patting the back to help release air from the stomach and prevent coughing and spitting up caused by choking.
2. Treating the common cold: If coughing and spitting up are caused by a cold due to exposure to cold, the baby can take medications such as children's cold granules under a doctor's guidance. Additionally, maintain good indoor air circulation and avoid irritants such as smoke and dust.
3. Adjusting feeding methods: Avoid overfeeding at one time; instead, feed smaller amounts more frequently to reduce the burden on the baby's stomach.
If the baby frequently coughs and spits up milk or if these symptoms are accompanied by other issues, seek medical attention promptly for professional diagnosis and treatment.
