Question

How do you treat a 7-year-old child’s dry cough after he inhaled water while ice skating on August 28th?

Answer

After a 7-year-old child coughs due to inhaling water while ice skating, it is important to pay attention to keeping warm to prevent conditions like tracheitis or pneumonia. During this period, in addition to maintaining warmth and adequate rest, the child should be given azithromycin for anti-inflammatory treatment, along with lung power cough syrup to alleviate cough symptoms. I hope these suggestions are helpful to you. Wishing you good health!
