Question
I don’t know what’s wrong, but my child has been crying and coughing with phlegm lately. We’ve seen a doctor, but they couldn’t find any issues. What methods can be used to alleviate the child’s cough?
Answer
The child has lung inflammation and it is recommended to take cefaclor or cefixime for treatment, along with appropriate cough medication. At the same time, physical cooling (temperature reduction) can be used to handle fever, and drinking warm water is encouraged. If diagnosed with a viral infection, antiviral drugs can be used for treatment.
