Partners in Kids Health 4Watch for unlikely sources of standing water. “A child can drown in less than an inch of water,” says Dr. Monroe. For instance, a bucket in the yard collecting rainwater can be deadly for a toddler, who might stick their head in the bucket and then not be able to get it back out. What About Secondary Drowning? You’ve probably seen the social media posts about dry drowning and secondary drowning, but Dr. Monroe says the phenomenon people are referring to is actually fairly rare. “Secondary drowning is not a true medical term,” Dr. Monroe says. She explains that after being submerged in water, a child can get a secondary inflammation that results in a cough that worsens over time. “The media conveys dry drowning as a dramatic event,” she says, “but it’s actually an insidious, slow-onset situation.” If a child has a minor situation while swimming (for instance sputtering or swallowing water), you should watch them at home for the next 72 hours. Look for symptoms such as persistent coughing and difficulty breathing. “Parents know what normal breathing looks like,” Dr. Monroe says. “The ribs should not be pulling to breathe.” If you remove your child from a pool and perform CPR, the child will usually start coughing and sputtering. At that point, Dr. Monroe says, it’s still crucial to get them to a physician for an evaluation. After submersion, there’s a 6- to 12-hour period during which they can worsen, according to Dr. Monroe. She emphasizes the need to bring a child in for a medical assessment as well as watch them carefully—even if they seem fine.
