Question
My child is two years and ten months old, and their tonsils have been inflaming frequently lately. In the past two months, they have inflamed three times. I’ve noticed their lips are a bit red, and today they have some white mucus, and they cough occasionally. The previous two times were treated with intravenous fluids, but this time the doctor said they are allergic and there are no suitable medications. They were only prescribed some children’s Jinqiao granules and a solution for antiviral use throughout the year. Should I add other medications?
Answer
Your child’s recurrent respiratory infections are primarily caused by viral and bacterial infections, as well as deficiencies in trace elements and low immunity in the respiratory system. Here are some suggestions:
- Proper feeding.
- Conduct anti-inflammatory treatment using traditional Chinese medicine, such as the Pudianlan Anti-inflammatory Oral Liquid.
- Use Ribavirin Spray.
- Take Yupingfeng Granules regularly.
- Engage in outdoor activities frequently to strengthen their constitution and improve their ability to resist diseases.
