If coughing and runny nose are not relieved by medication, what should I do?

Patient's question:

These days, my boss said I'm not in good spirits, which has affected my work performance. Actually, I didn't mean to, either. I always can't sleep at night, and sometimes I feel anxious and uncomfortable. If it gets worse, I'm worried it will affect my health and work. What should I do if the cough and runny nose medicine doesn't work?

Doctor's answer:

The child's lung inflammation is still quite severe. It is recommended to use cefadroxil for muscle injection. For cough or phlegm, pediatric Gan Gan granules and Mucosolvan can be used in combination. If the effect is not satisfactory, intravenous infusion of antibiotics can be considered.
There are many causes of respiratory issues in children. If the child is confirmed to have a respiratory system problem, parents need to cooperate with the doctor for immediate treatment, including gastric decompression, and develop good hygiene habits. The child should maintain a balanced diet and avoid stimulating and cold foods.
