Patient's question:
I have a few questions. My 6-year-old child is coughing without phlegm, and there are no cold symptoms. They mentioned feeling a bit of chest pain, and sometimes their stomach hurts when they cough. What could be the reason for this? And what treatment is recommended?Doctor's answer:
A six-year-old child, with coughing without phlegm, no cold symptoms, saying there's a little pain in the chest, and a bit of abdominal pain when coughing, this condition is considered mild coughing. Mild coughing is generally seen in cases of acute or chronic pharyngitis, acute bronchitis, Mycoplasma pneumonia, and other conditions. Due to intense muscle contractions, it can cause pain in the chest or lower abdomen. It is recommended to use Roxithromycin or Azithromycin, and for clearing the lungs, Coughex or Strong Pleurisy can be used. The above suggestions are for the question "I want to ask a few questions, 6-year-old child is only coughing." I hope it helps you. Wishing you good health!
