Question

My child has a runny nose and mild cough during the day, but the cough worsens at night with a whistling sound during breathing. Which medication should be used for treatment?

Answer

Considering the child’s worsening cough at night and the whistling sound during breathing, there may be a risk of pneumonia. It is recommended to visit a pediatrician for a detailed examination and treatment. Treatment may include anti-infection, expectorant measures, and possibly lung cleansing therapy. Please actively cooperate with the pediatrician’s diagnosis and treatment recommendations to ensure the child’s health. Additionally, in daily life, attention should be paid to dietary adjustments, avoiding overeating or undereating, and maintaining good living habits.
