For the past week or so, the child has been suffering from severe coughing every night. Sometimes, they vomit the food they ate at dinner, and at other times, some mucus. After vomiting, they sleep soundly. Initially, I thought it was due to eating too much for dinner, but even when dinner was light, they still vomited. There is no sign of asthma. They had a cold with a runny nose before, which then turned into coughing, and now it’s especially severe at night. The child just started kindergarten, and they may eat more when they come home because they aren’t full during the day.
A six-year-old girl has a hoarse throat when she goes to bed at night, and snoring sounds accompanied by coughing, with a possible fever. How should it be handled? There was a cough that led to pneumonia, and it took a total of one month to recover, with seven days of azithromycin.
