Question
How to treat and medicate chronic bronchitis, especially for a four-year-old child with symptoms including cough and abdominal bloating, prone to onset in winter, having previously received intravenous treatment, but hoping to learn more about treatment and medication information.
Answer
Chronic bronchitis is a common childhood illness, with the primary treatment goals being to suppress infection, moisturize the lungs, and clear the lungs. Oral expectorants such as Compound Licorice Mixture can be used, along with magnetic resonance atomization inhalation therapy. Antibiotics can be used to control infections. Daily preventive measures include adjusting clothing appropriately with weather changes, avoiding colds, maintaining adequate water intake, and consuming more vitamin A to enhance immunity. It is recommended to provide light, easy-to-digest foods to alleviate abdominal bloating. Wishing the child a swift recovery.
