Question
How to Deal with Cough with Phlegm in Children
Answer
Such symptoms in children are usually due to catching a cold or respiratory tract infection, and in severe cases, they may be related to lung heat. It is suggested to use medications like Azithromycin or cough syrup for treatment, and also to use external applications such as Yiqi Patch and Yitie Ning to enhance the therapeutic effect. In more severe cases, it is recommended to first take alcohol sponge baths to lower body temperature and further investigate the cause of the fever. Since there are many possible causes of fever, including infection, connective tissue disease, malignant tumors, etc., it is not advisable to rush into medication treatment without determining the cause.
