Question

My child has been coughing persistently after recovering from a cold, with a lot of phlegm and wheezing sounds. How can I help improve their symptoms at this time?

Answer

When a child has trachea asthma, it is advisable to eat light and avoid spicy and stimulating food. Avoid very cold or very hot foods, and do not consume foods that are likely to trigger asthma, such as fish, shrimp, eggs, and milk. Maintain warmth, avoid colds and airway irritation. In terms of living environment, pay attention to hygiene, avoid dust, and do not come into contact with objects that may harbor bacteria, such as plush toys and carpets. Also, avoid keeping small animals. When cleaning, be careful to prevent dust from being stirred up. I hope these suggestions will be helpful to you.
