It sounds like your little one is having a tough time dealing with respiratory issues. At 4 months old, it's understandable to be worried about a have something like this. So, I can't stress enough how important it is to follow up with your pediatrician or a specialist, especially since he's got an inhale and the thymus enlargement. These can be serious and needs close medical supervision. That being said, Ayurveda can sometimes offer supportive care along with regular treatments. Be sure anything you try doesn’t interfere with what's already been prescribed by the doctors, right? Little babies have their own unique balance, but keeping things simple is often key. You might want to watch out for anything that's irritating him – all kinds of synthetic fragrances or cleaners can be a bother. Opt for natural cleaning products in your home if you can, and keep things dust-free as much as possible. Now, when it comes to ayurvedic perspectives, warm breastmilk is best. It’s tridoshic and agrees with most constitutions. It helps boost immunity and provides warmth and nutrients. If he’s nursing, you might consider your own diet too, as it affects him through your milk. Focusing on warm, cooked foods, staying away from cold, heavy, and excessively oily foods might be helpful.

Always, always, err on the side of caution and keep those lines with healthcare providers wide open.
