Question
How to solve a 38-year-old child’s nighttime coughing for a month?
Answer
A 38-year-old child experiencing nighttime coughing for a month, accompanied by yellow mucus and high fever, may be suffering from bronchitis due to an unresolved upper respiratory infection. Children have weaker resistance, and when upper respiratory viral infections are not well controlled, they can easily spread to the upper respiratory tract, leading to bronchitis or even pneumonia. Prolonged coughing should also be monitored for the possibility of tuberculosis or asthma. It is recommended to seek medical attention immediately for further examination and treatment to avoid affecting lung function.
