My child sleeps with their mouth open (mouth breathing).

This is due to a blocked nose caused by rhinitis or adenoid hypertrophy. Mouth breathing can lead to changes in facial structure (known as 'adenoid facies') and weakened immunity, so treatment is necessary to enable nasal breathing.

코는 천연 가습기이자 공기청정기 역할을 하지만, 입은 단순한 통로에 불과합니다.

  • 문제점: 입으로 숨을 쉬면 찬 공기가 폐로 직접 들어가 감기에 자주 걸리며, 턱이 길어지거나 치열이 틀어질 수 있습니다.
  • 수면 테이프: 코 막힘 증상을 먼저 해결한 뒤, 취침 시 입에 테이프를 붙여 코로 호흡하는 습관을 길러주세요.
  • 치료: 비염 치료를 통해 코 점막의 붓기를 가라앉히면 숨길이 시원하게 열립니다.
💡 집중력

코로 호흡해야 뇌의 열이 식습니다. 반면 입으로 호흡하면 뇌가 과열되어 주의력이 산만해지기 쉽습니다.
