Question
My child snores at night, has difficulty breathing through the nose, accompanied by coughing. In the morning, there is a lot of eye mucus and dry lips. What treatment methods can you recommend?
Answer
Common treatment methods for pediatric ear, nose, and throat diseases include medication, surgical treatment, and lifestyle adjustments. Medication is typically used to alleviate symptoms, such as using nasal sprays to relieve nasal congestion; surgical treatment is suitable for severe symptoms or when medication is ineffective, such as tonsillectomy. Additionally, improving lifestyle habits, such as avoiding secondhand smoke and maintaining appropriate indoor humidity, can also help alleviate symptoms. It is recommended to consult an otolaryngology specialist to develop an appropriate treatment plan based on the child’s specific condition.
