Patient's question:
Since living in the hospital in April 2012, I have not recovered from the cold. I have been taking Western medicine for 340 days a year, continuously for one year and three months. I was hospitalized four times, and the baby coughs every day. If I stop taking medicine for one day, I cough very badly the next day. I go to the women's health hospital at least four times a month and as many as seven times. The doctor prescribes six days of medicine. I don't cough during the day, but I cough in the morning and evening. There is phlegm, my tonsils are very large and red, my stool is dry, and I have many lymph nodes, two as big as five-cent coins. I sweat at night every day, and coughing gets worse with changes in the weather or when a breeze blows. I have strong drug resistance and no immunity at all. Even today, I am still taking medicine three times a day, and I can't stop for even one day. Moreover, I have been taking an immune-regulating drug called sodium carboxymethyl starch solution for a long time. The first hospitalization was diagnosed as bronchitis, the second as herpetic pharyngitis and acute purulent tonsillitis, the third as acute tonsillitis and bronchitis. A chest X-ray suggested bronchitis.Doctor's answer:
It is recommended to follow a regular anti-infection treatment under the guidance of a doctor to ensure the condition fully improves. It is advised to drink more water, maintain a light diet, and avoid spicy foods. In daily life, it is important to exercise regularly, enhance physical fitness, and reduce the occurrence of respiratory infections. If tonsillitis recurs frequently, elective surgery for tonsil removal can be considered.Acute tonsillitis in children can cause significant harm to patients. It is recommended that the patient seek timely medical attention from a specialized clinic and follow treatment under the guidance of a doctor. Appropriate exercise is acceptable in daily life, but attention should be paid to preventing "overheating" (excessive internal heat). We hope the child can recover as soon as possible!
