How to treat an infant with wheezing bronchitis?

Answer

Wheezing bronchitis often occurs during the cold season or sudden changes in temperature and is a common respiratory disease in infants. Treatment typically includes medication and physical therapy. Medication treatment may involve the use of antibiotics or other anti-inflammatory drugs. Physical therapy may involve the use of patches, such as applying a medication patch containing sulfur powder, licorice, etc., on the navel to treat chronic bronchitis cough. Additionally, there are patches containing ingredients like bisulfide and rhubarb that can be applied to acupoints, suitable for bronchitis with a heat syndrome. These methods are derived from books such as “Compendium of External Treatments in Traditional Chinese Medicine” and “Collection of Chinese Moxibustion Techniques.” The above suggestions are for the treatment of infant wheezing bronchitis, hoping they will be helpful to you, and wishing you good health.
