author:Dr. Sawahashi

Recently, such an incident happened around me, which broke my guard, and made me start to doubt my life doubts, and as a health science worker, I did not even cover the people around me.

Here's the thing,

Last weekend I went to my brother's house to rub rice, just happened to encounter my little niece cold cough, recently changed the season well, children feel a cough is also very normal, normal maintenance for a few days, adjust the indoor air, really can't go to the hospital to see.

But my brother is also a tiger man, directly a large spoonful of cough syrup to feed my little niece belly, she is only three years old.

I said, this doesn't work. He said it was ok.

I said you didn't understand the situation, and if there was a problem, you went to solve the person who raised the problem, right? Definitely not right

Cough is actually the one who asked the question.

In fact, there are many cough receptors distributed throughout our respiratory system, and once some irritation occurs in the lungs, the cough receptors will produce nerve impulses, and nerve impulses will travel along our afferent nerves to the central nervous system. At this time, our central nervous system will make a judgment and cough out these things that are harmful to me through coughing.

Do not understand? Let's put it another way.

These cough receptors are like a monitoring probe, once some irritation is found, these probes will report this information to the leader, the leader feels that this bad thing can not be removed to get out of ah, the process of making out is cough.

Let's take another analogy, what happens if you choke on water while swimming? You can't help but think about coughing, right, this is actually after the water enters our respiratory system, the respiratory system wants to drain the water. The same is true of phlegm.

Therefore, just thinking about cough is a symptom rather than a cure, but it may lead to phlegm staying in the child's body for too long and not discharged in time.

And cough medicine can not be eaten indiscriminately.

The American Academy of Pediatrics believes that it is not recommended to give cough medicine to children under the age of six.
