Question
How to handle a 1-year and 4-month-old child’s persistent cough with a lung infection?
Answer
The 1-year and 4-month-old child has been diagnosed with a lung infection due to persistent cough. Oral treatment with roxithromycin, doxapram, and antihistamines can be administered. It is recommended to drink plenty of water, avoid overly salty food, and consume more liquid foods for easy digestion. Stay away from greasy, cold, and raw foods; seafood should be eaten in moderation. Pay attention to warmth, avoid catching a cold, and seek timely treatment. Eating candied dates or drinking honey water can also be beneficial.
