Question
A five-and-a-half-year-old child was hospitalized for ten days due to a mild mycoplasma pneumonia infection. After receiving intravenous azithromycin and ceftriaxone, the child was discharged but occasionally still has phlegm, sometimes feeling it in the throat, which improves slightly with a light cough. How should treatment be continued?
Answer
Increase daily water intake and consider drinking cooked pear water or white radish water. Additionally, take the compound fresh bamboo extract oral liquid three times a day, half a bottle each time, for three consecutive days. Also, ensure smooth bowel movements.
