Breathing through the mouth means breathing through the mouth, so many parents have come up with a coup to "stick the child's mouth with tape". So, is this method really feasible?
Experts remind: tape sealing should not be blindly followed.
Adhesive tape on the mouth is only suitable for children who simply breathe through the mouth; If it is caused by tonsil adenoid hypertrophy or rhinitis, parents must not stick their mouths on their children, otherwise they will be out of breath.
The cause of mouth breathing should be clear.
Regardless of whether "ugliness" is caused by mouth breathing, everyone should also pay attention to why children have mouth breathing.
0 1, adenoidal hypertrophy/tonsil hypertrophy.
Children who snore are often accompanied by sleep and breathing. "The main cause of snoring in children is adenoidal hypertrophy or tonsil hypertrophy, and there are also snoring caused by both."
If you have a cold, throat inflammation and other temporary adenoidal hypertrophy. I won't snore when I get well. This situation does not require medical treatment.
If the child snores for a long time, and it becomes more and more serious, or even suffocates, he must seek medical attention in time.
If we don't pay attention to children's snoring, it will affect their growth and development, and there may be behavioral changes and cognitive obstacles.
"At present, the surgical treatment of snoring in children is to remove the tonsils and adenoids of children and relieve the stenosis caused by upper respiratory tract obstruction." Children aged 4 to 6 operate the most.
02, rhinitis
Another reason why children breathe with their mouths open is the influence of rhinitis. Every summer is the season of high incidence of children's rhinitis, so the child's breathing volume is very large this season.
Parents should first take their children to the otolaryngology department to rule out the above two situations. If not, it's probably just through oral breathing, and you can go to stomatology for treatment.
