Question
My granddaughter has a cough, especially when she lies down, with white, thick mucus that is not yellowish, without fever, but she is not interested in eating. What could be the cause?
Answer
The cause of her cough could be due to wind-cold or wind-heat. It is recommended to use traditional Chinese medicine treatments such as Fufang Pipa Gao and Fresh Bamboo Decoction. At the same time, keeping warm, getting plenty of rest, and drinking more water can also help alleviate the condition. If Western medicine treatment is needed, consider intravenous Azithromycin and Qingkailing Injection. Pay attention to dietary habits in daily life to prevent the occurrence of coughs.
