Question
My child has been diagnosed with bronchitis in the hospital, but it hasn’t healed yet, and they get like this whenever they have a fever. How can we get rid of it permanently? Thank you very much!!! I am looking for assistance on what medication to use, and the sound of phlegm in the throat is due to congenital laryngeal cartilage softening and narrow larynx, which is medically referred to as congenital laryngeal cartilage softening disease.
Answer
Most children show no symptoms after birth initially, but symptoms become apparent after a fever or other illnesses. The main symptoms include an indentation in the upper chest during inhalation and a wheezing sound in the throat. Wheezing can be intermittent or continuous, and severe cases show symptoms more obvious when sleeping or crying, but the crying sound is normal and not hoarse. Most children’s laryngeal cartilage stabilizes and the interlaryngeal space decreases with age, and the symptoms gradually improve and disappear. Generally, no treatment is needed. Care should be taken, expose them to sunlight more often, timely digest calcium and vitamin D, and prevent respiratory tract infections and laryngeal inflammation. Wishing for health and safety!
