What are some folk remedies for white phlegm cough in children?
Children with a white phlegm cough can be diagnosed through chest X-rays, CT scans, and bronchoscopy with bronchial provocation tests. Antibiotics, corticosteroids, and medications to relieve cough and reduce phlegm are prescribed. Avoid spicy, alcoholic, and cold foods. Regular exercise and a healthy diet are recommended to strengthen the body. Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) can also be considered, with treatments such as Yin Qiao Jie Du Ointment, Xian Fen Xian He Tang, and Shou Wu Hu Luo Wan. Correct the child’s picky eating and selective eating habits. Drink plenty of water and eat more vegetables and fruits that are nourishing and cooling, such as Lily, Silver Ear, and Pears.
