Question

What should I do if my child has a cough with phlegm?

Answer

  1. Pear, Rock Sugar, and Fritillaria Bulb: Cut a pear horizontally, remove the core, and place 2 to 3 pieces of rock sugar and 5 to 6 crushed fritillaria bulbs inside. Steam in a bowl for 30 minutes. Serve to the child in two servings. This recipe is effective for moistening the lungs, stopping coughs, and resolving phlegm.
  2. Boiled White Radish Water: Wash the white radish, slice it thinly, and place it in a small pot. Add about half a bowl of water, bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 5 minutes. Let it cool slightly before serving to the child. It is suitable for wind-heat coughs. 3
