Question
Due to sleeping with the window open at night, I caught a cold and have been suffering from persistent cough, with a hoarse voice and medication not being effective. I am seeking ways to improve my condition.
Answer
The patient’s current condition requires the use of various cold medications and anti-inflammatory drugs, along with symptomatic treatments such as clearing the lungs and cooling the blood to combat respiratory symptoms caused by bacterial and viral infections. During the treatment period, it is important to drink plenty of water, maintain a light diet, and keep warm. If the medication is ineffective, it is recommended to visit the hospital’s respiratory and internal medicine department for a re-examination.
