Patient's question:
Experts,My child is two years old. At first, he had a runny nose, then he started coughing a bit, and later there was a sound in his throat. We took him to the hospital, and the doctor prescribed some medicine and gave him intravenous fluids for four days, but he didn’t get better. Later, we gave him intravenous fluids for three more days, and then he developed diarrhea. We suspect it might be related to the intravenous fluids, so we stopped them but didn’t remove them. (After stopping them for three days, the diarrhea improved, but he started having a high fever of 38 degrees. We took him back to the hospital, had an X-ray taken, and the doctor said he had pneumonia. The doctor then asked us to give him intravenous fluids for three more days, but today he is still showing signs of fever.)
I would like to ask the experts...
Doctor's answer:
It is recommended to take Baijiahai Shuanghuanglian Oral Liquid and Cefaclor Capsules together for treatment. Drink more water, pay attention to keeping warm and getting rest, and take precautions against cold. Change clothes promptly if they become sweaty. During treatment, focus on rest, maintaining a good surrounding environment, drinking plenty of water, and supplementing with a large amount of vitamin C, etc. There are many causes of respiratory diseases in children. If a child is diagnosed with a respiratory condition, parents need to cooperate with the doctor for immediate treatment, including gastric decompression, and develop good hygiene habits. The child should have a balanced diet and avoid stimulating and cold foods.
