Question

Lately, my child has been crying and the hoarse throat symptoms have not improved. We’ve taken them for a check-up but the cause has not been found. I’d like to ask what methods can help the child recover?

Answer

The hoarse throat in a 6-month-old child may be due to an upper respiratory infection or tracheitis. It is recommended to choose medications such as cefixime granules and roxithromycin granules, and to use ammonium chloride oral solution and children’s cold medicine. In addition, gastrointestinal decompression should be performed, and good hygiene habits should be maintained. The child should have a reasonable diet and avoid spicy or cold foods.
