Question
What should I do if a child keeps coughing dryly?
Answer
Your child’s persistent dry cough might be due to wind-cold flu. It is characterized by frequent coughing, thin, white sputum, clear nasal discharge, pale or slightly red tongue with thin coating, and a heavy cough sound, accompanied by headache and fever, or even rapid breathing. Treatment can include Sanao Soup combined with herbs that reduce gas and resolve phlegm.
