Question
How should one handle the situation where a two-year-old baby often has phlegm in the throat?
Answer
After a week of intravenous treatment, a week of nebulization and medication therapy, a two-year-old baby’s cough has stopped, but there is still phlegm in the throat. This indicates that the previous respiratory infection has not fully healed. It is recommended to use ambroxol to help expel phlegm. At the same time, attention should be paid to diet, with an increase in vegetables and water intake to maintain smooth bowel movements. It is advisable to avoid snacks, drinks, yogurt, and spicy, greasy irritating foods.
