I have a barking cough (laryngitis/croup).

Croup is characterized by swelling of the larynx (vocal cord area). It is dangerous because the narrowing of the airway can lead to respiratory distress. Exposure to cold night air may provide some temporary relief, but if breathing becomes difficult, you must seek immediate medical attention.

밤중에 들리는 컹컹거리는 기침 소리는 부모님께 매우 공포스럽게 느껴집니다.

  • 가습: 욕실에 뜨거운 물을 틀어 수증기를 가득 채운 뒤, 아이와 함께 머무르면 기침 진정에 효과가 있습니다.
  • 체질: 호흡기가 건조하고 열이 많은 아이들이 주로 발생합니다. 평소 맥문동차 등을 통해 호흡기를 촉촉하게 관리해 주세요.
💡 찬 공기

크룹은 특이하게도 시원한 바람을 쐬면 기도 부종이 일시적으로 가라앉습니다. 급할 때는 냉장고 문을 열고 그 앞에 아이를 잠시 세워두는 것도 방법입니다.
