Question
How to Treat a Baby’s Cough with Phlegm?
Answer
My 4-month-old baby seems to have phlegm in her throat lately, and she always makes a whistling sound when breathing. I’ve been giving her pediatric cough syrup and expectorant granules three times a day. The doctor advised to supplement calcium for the child. At the same time, let the baby sleep on her side, drink plenty of water, and take pediatric cold and phlegm granules for a week. Such conditions are usually caused by catching a cold or respiratory tract infection. If the situation is severe, there is a possibility of lung heat. Consider using cough medications like Kechi Qing for treatment.
