Question
After five days of flu fever, the child still has a persistent stuffy nose, occasional cough with phlegm, and a significant amount of yellow-green eye discharge. The child is currently taking Lan Qin oral liquid and Oseltamivir. What other methods can be used to cool blood and completely cure the flu? Should we continue to focus on taking the current medication?
Answer
Based on the information you provided, has the child undergone a routine blood test? For the child’s current condition, it is first recommended to conduct a routine blood test and CRP test to understand the infection status. If it is a viral infection, Oseltamivir granules and Lan Qin oral liquid can be taken. For cough with phlegm, ambroxol oral liquid can be used to thin the mucus and relieve coughing. If there is a lot of phlegm, it can be combined with nebulizer therapy, and plenty of water should be consumed.
