Patient's question:
Lately, my boss has said that I'm not in good spirits and it's affecting my work performance. Actually, I don't want to, either. I often can't sleep at night, sometimes feeling anxious and uncomfortable. If it gets worse, I'm worried it will affect my health and work.What are the symptoms of a gastrointestinal cold in children? How is it treated?
Doctor's answer:
Colds are mostly caused by viruses, and the general treatment involves a combination of antiviral, antiallergic, and fever-reducing/pain-relieving medications. Commonly used drugs include compound paracetamol and phenylephrine preparations. If combined with traditional Chinese medicine for clearing heat and detoxifying, such as Yinhuang Ganmao Granules, patients with cough symptoms should also be prescribed antibacterial and anti-inflammatory drugs, as well as cough and phlegm-relieving medications. These should all be selected by clinical doctors based on the specific condition.
