Question
My child has been coughing up a lot of phlegm lately, crying and restless, and I don’t know how to treat it?
Answer
First, chest X-rays, CT scans, bronchoscopy, and other examinations can be conducted, and antibiotics, hormones, and other medications can be used for treatment based on the examination results. At the same time, it is necessary to avoid eating spicy, cold, and other irritating foods and to strengthen exercise to enhance physical fitness. If the symptoms are mild, you can let the baby drink more water, observe for a few days, and let the body naturally produce immunity. If the situation does not improve or worsens, it is advisable to take the baby to see a doctor as soon as possible.
