Patient's question:
I am Xiao Huan, and I am 5 years old. I have been coughing for nearly a year. The cough feels a bit like shortness of breath. I also have allergies to dust mites. Every evening, I start coughing, feeling a bit short of breath, and then I cough up a lot of sticky, white foam sputum.Doctor's answer:
Consider the possibility of acute bronchitis or pharyngitis. It is recommended to drink more water and avoid spicy and irritating foods. Take anti-inflammatory drugs such as amoxicillin or azithromycin, ambroxol tablets, and cough suppressants like cephalexin for treatment. If necessary, go to the hospital for examination, diagnosis, and treatment. There are many causes of respiratory diseases in children. If the child is confirmed to have a respiratory system disease, parents need to cooperate with the doctor to start treatment immediately, cooperate with gastrointestinal decompression, and develop good hygiene habits. Parents should pay attention not to develop picky eating habits in children and maintain a balanced diet.
