Patient's question:
The child is 5 years old and has been coughing a lot these past few days, especially at night when the coughing is particularly severe, making it difficult to sleep. The throat is hoarse, and they have taken many mucus-thinning medications but still feel like there is mucus that they can't cough up.Previous treatment and effectiveness: The hospital conducted a thorough examination and said there was nothing wrong, but the trachea is not in good condition.
What kind of assistance is needed: What should I do? What kind of medication should I take?
Doctor's answer:
The child has a cough at night. The key to treatment is antibiotics and blood-cooling measures. Since the cough only occurs at night, it indicates that the inflammation is not severe, and oral medication should suffice. Options include azithromycin and Qingfei Liangxue Granules. Generally, it takes 5-7 days for complete recovery. Drinking plenty of water is also crucial. Key guidance for care: The child's condition shows signs of bronchitis. The child can take the aforementioned medications for treatment. In necessary cases, intravenous treatment may also be considered. The child's condition will gradually improve with the appropriate treatment. This is unrelated to anything else.
