Question
My three-year-old daughter has been coughing for quite a while now, quite a lot, but it’s not constant; she just coughs a few times every minute, and it feels very dry. We’ve been giving her cough medicine, but it hasn’t improved much. What should we do?
Answer
Based on your description, it’s likely that the symptoms are caused by discomfort in the throat area. Suggestions: Give the child more warm water to drink, eat vegetables and fruits rich in vitamin C, ensure adequate rest and warmth, and avoid catching a cold. Engage in moderate exercise to enhance resistance. Wishing the child a speedy recovery!
