Patient's question:
Which is less harmful to the body, atomization or intravenous drip? My one-year-old child has a fever, a slight cough, a very small amount of phlegm, and runny nose. At the community hospital, one doctor recommended medication, another suggested intravenous drip, and another recommended atomization. Which one should I follow?Doctor's answer:
General treatment principles are to take medication when possible instead of injections, and to use oral medication when possible instead of intravenous fluids. If the baby doesn't take medication well, inhalation can be used instead. Inhalation is effective and beneficial. It is recommended to focus on inhalation treatment. Currently, it is important to prevent cold drafts and keep warm to alleviate symptoms. Drinking plenty of hot water also aids recovery.The above advice is for the question "Which is less harmful to the body between inhalation and intravenous fluids?" I hope it helps. Wishing you good health!
