Is it ok to pat your baby back to help to spit out (to be exact vomit out) phlegm in her chest? My baby is just 4 mo, and have been coughing so bad. We are using nebulizer but I don't see its helpful as she is still coughing so bad. I am told to keep a watch till Friday to see if coughing will continue and becoming bronchitis. Any mum can share their experience? Thanks !

This is what i learnt from TCM doctor. No medication required. with your hand, in a cup shape, pat their entire back, side of chest and front. It will help to dislodge the phlegm. Do it firmly. It will help to dislodge the phlegm and the baby will vomit the phelgm out.
