Question
My child has been coughing continuously for a month, with phlegm in the throat that cannot be coughed up. The cough keeps coming back. How should I treat it?
Answer
Hello, this condition may be caused by mycoplasma infection or bronchitis. It is recommended that you give your child cough medicine, such as Qingzhu Oral Liquid, and combine it with antibiotic treatment, such as azithromycin. If the symptoms are severe, intravenous therapy may be required. Please note to drink plenty of water, and the symptoms should gradually improve. Wishing your child a speedy recovery. In addition, there are many causes of pediatric respiratory system diseases. If your child is diagnosed with a pediatric respiratory system disease, parents need to cooperate with the doctor for treatment and perform gastrointestinal decompression. At the same time, good hygiene habits should be cultivated. Parents should also pay attention to avoid their children from being picky eaters and maintain a balanced diet.
