My baby always coughs when he wakes up in autumn. What’s going on? In addition to colds, there are also these reasons

Now that autumn is approaching, the temperature is gradually dropping. It may be relatively warm during the day, but it may get a little cold in the morning and at night.

In such a climate, adults may not have any problems, but babies have weak resistance. If they are not careful, they may not be able to bear it, and may end up with colds and coughs due to colds.

Although they are not easy to see, they are easy to breathe into the respiratory tract, making the nose and throat uncomfortable.
