Question
What prescription is effective for children with wind-cold cough?
Answer
Based on your description of the symptoms, treatment should focus on dispersing wind and cold, and relieving cough. You can consider using traditional Chinese medicine, such as a modified Shé Gān Máo Huáng decoction. Maintain a diet of light and easy-to-digest foods, avoiding spicy and irritating foods, and drink plenty of water. Additionally, there are many causes of pediatric respiratory diseases. If a child is diagnosed with a pediatric respiratory disease, parents need to cooperate with the doctor for immediate treatment, and also cooperate with gastrointestinal decompression (digestive pressure relief), as well as cultivate good hygiene habits. Parents should also pay attention to not allowing their children to be picky or have a preference for certain foods, and to have a balanced diet.
