Question

A week ago, the child had a slight cough. After three days of nebulizer treatment with no effect, and after taking three doses of traditional Chinese medicine without any change, the condition worsened. Currently, three days of intravenous drip treatment have shown no difference. Should we switch to traditional Chinese medicine for quicker results?

Drinking plenty of water and keeping warm are conducive to the improvement of symptoms. There are many triggers for children’s respiratory system.
