Question
Hi, my child is a 7-year-old boy, and he has been coughing recently. I would like to ask how to treat a child’s cough effectively?
Answer
Hello! Based on the child’s cough symptoms, it is most likely caused by pediatric pneumonia. Treatment for pediatric pneumonia involves chest CT scans and mycoplasma tests. If there are issues with the tests, timely antibiotic treatment may be required. Therefore, it is recommended to go to the hospital for a check-up first. In addition, the child should have a diet that is light and easy to digest, with an emphasis on fresh vegetables and fruits, and plenty of water.
