Question

My baby has been coughing with phlegm and has a loud breathing sound, which has lasted for three or four days. There has been no fever or runny nose. We have been giving him Amoxicillin Clavulanate Potassium and the dry suspension of vitamin C. What more can we do for help?

Answer

Coughing with phlegm could be a symptom of bronchitis. The use of Amoxicillin Clavulanate Potassium at home has some effect on controlling the infection, and it is also recommended to give the child medications to clear the lungs and cool the blood. If there is no improvement after three or four days of home treatment, it is suggested to visit a local hospital for a follow-up consultation. These are the suggestions for the question “What to do if your baby coughs with phlegm, no fever, and no runny nose.” I hope this helps you, and wish you health!
