Coughing in Children Under One Year: Normal or a Sign of Illness?

Why do babies cough? 🤔

• Changes in air in the respiratory system: Cold or warm air, dust, or allergens can cause coughing in children. ❄️🌞
• Mucus and phlegm: Since babies' respiratory systems are not fully developed, the accumulation of mucus or phlegm can trigger coughing. 💧
• Sensitivity: Newborns have a very sensitive respiratory system, so they may cough in response to changes in the air or even mild irritants. 😌💨

When should you be concerned? 🧐 If coughing continues in the following situations or is accompanied by other symptoms, it’s important to consult a doctor:

• Fever or high body temperature. 🌡️
• Difficulty breathing. 😟
• Persistent coughing, especially lasting more than a few days.
