Patient's question:
Here is the English translation of the provided text, with the original line breaks preserved:Recently for the past month, I've had tonsillitis and went to the hospital twice. Once it got better with medication I took myself, but last night I started coughing again. There's something like phlegm in my throat, and I wonder if my tonsils are inflamed again. Currently, the only symptom is coughing, no other symptoms. My child's bowel movements are dry and hard, one piece at a time.
Past Treatment and Effectiveness:
I went to the hospital twice two weeks ago and it was cured. But last night I started coughing again. It's worse at night and better during the day.
What kind of help do you need:
What is the actual problem? What should I do?
Doctor's answer:
A three-year-old child has had frequent tonsillitis for nearly a month. Now they have a cough and a mucus-like substance in their throat. It is likely acute bronchitis or acute laryngitis. It is recommended to have a chest X-ray for a thorough examination to confirm the diagnosis.If a thorough examination diagnoses acute bronchitis or acute pharyngolaryngitis, the child should take Cefixime Granules and Children's Mucolytic Cough Granules for treatment. In the meantime, it is advisable to eat more vegetables and fruits to promote bowel movements and avoid spicy or hard foods. Drinking a little honey water in the morning can help soothe the digestive system. Wishing the baby a speedy recovery.
