Question
My baby has been diagnosed with bronchitis, and after a week of taking medication, the cough has stopped. However, there is still a whistling sound in the throat. Now it has been four days since we stopped the medication, and the bronchitis has not improved. What should we do?
Answer
Based on your description, I suggest taking the following measures: drink plenty of water and eat light, easy-to-digest foods. The whistling sound in the throat may be due to residual phlegm, which can be treated with nebulization therapy once a day. Also, pay attention to back tapping to promote phlegm discharge and keep the airways clear. If the condition does not improve, seek medical attention promptly.
