In your case, it may be a wind-cold cold with coughing, known as "wind-cold cough." This is a syndrome caused by exposure to wind-cold. The symptoms of this syndrome include frequent coughing, thin and white sputum, clear nasal discharge, pale red tongue with thin white coating, heavy coughing sound, headache, slight fever, and in severe cases, shortness of breath. It can be treated with San Yao Tang plus herbs that lower qi and resolve phlegm. There are many factors that can affect a child's respiratory system.

The child should have a balanced diet and avoid stimulating and cold foods.
