Question
A child has been suffering from a persistent cough with throat phlegm. The child has been treated with ribavirin, pediatric cough syrup, and pediatric paracetamol and chlorpheniramine granules, but the symptoms have not improved. What other treatment methods or home remedies are there?
Answer
The child’s current condition may be due to tonsillitis, which is relatively common in children. If tonsillitis is confirmed, anti-inflammatory treatment should be administered, and fresh bamboo juice can be considered for cooling the blood. It is not advisable to eat or drink within half an hour after consumption. It is also recommended to drink plenty of water and eat fresh fruits.
