Answer
This condition is characterized by severe coughing in the morning and evening, no cough during the day, and worsening cough after exercise. While medical treatment cannot cure it completely, symptoms can be controlled to prevent deterioration into allergic asthma. Treatment includes antiallergic medications such as cetirizine syrup and Aotus, topical Amidite patches, and avoiding excessive use of antibiotics. It is recommended to continue taking Shun’er Ning and regularly monitor lung function. At the same time, avoid contact with allergens to alleviate symptoms.
