Question
What to do when a child has a persistent high fever for over a month?
Answer
If the baby has a cough with phlegm, it is likely due to bronchitis caused by a cold. You can apply pediatric cough syrup, pediatric lung heat cough syrup, and combine it with antibiotics such as azithromycin or amoxicillin for treatment. You can also give the baby some sugar-cane pear juice or simmered pear with Fritillaria thunbergii to help relieve cough and phlegm. Remember to ensure the baby drinks plenty of water, keep warm, and prevent catching a cold.
