Question

My child is 3 years old and has been taking medicine for half a month, but there is still some cough. What should I do?

Answer

This situation may be caused by pneumonia, and it is recommended to take oral symptomatic medication for treatment. If there are cold symptoms, consider adding other medications for treatment. Herbs that clear the lungs are effective, but avoid spicy and fried foods to prevent exacerbation of the condition. It is suggested to drink more hot water, maintain an optimistic attitude, which helps boost the immune system’s vitality. At the same time, ensure adequate rest and increase daily physical activity to avoid overexertion.
