What are the reasons for a child’s persistent cough? It starts with a dry cough and then produces phlegm.
Answer
Persistent cough in children may be caused by various factors, including colds, allergies, and asthma. The treatment method should be determined according to the cause. Generally, drinking plenty of water and using expectorants can help alleviate cough symptoms. If coughing is accompanied by phlegm, you can try using expectorant medications to help expel mucus. Additionally, keeping the environment moist and avoiding allergens can also help alleviate cough symptoms.
