Patient's question:
My child has also been coughing for over 10 days. They have taken many medications, but it hasn't improved. They don't have a high fever, just the cough. Is there any good treatment method?Visited the Central City Hospital on March 5th. What kind of help do you need: Give a good treatment method.
Doctor's answer:
The child has been coughing repeatedly. If the duration is relatively short, it might be due to a recurrence of a lung infection. The complete elimination of inflammation requires time. Since the child has a weak immune system, anti-inflammatory treatment generally needs to last more than 7 days to improve.Currently, the child is not running a high fever and is only coughing, without producing phlegm. In such cases, it's usually not a serious issue. In the coming days, it's recommended to boost the child's immunity. Oral anti-inflammatory medications like azithromycin or cefixime can be taken. Generally, the condition is not severe, so it's important to ensure the child drinks plenty of fluids. The situation is usually not serious.
