Patient's question:
Doctor, my child is 19 months old. On the 8th, they were hospitalized due to coughing and fever. There was nothing wrong with their lungs. They were discharged on the 17th. Now they are coughing with phlegm, making a rattling sound, and have clear nasal discharge. What's going on?Doctor's answer:
The child should have a respiratory infection again, and lung auscultation should be performed. The child's immune function has not fully recovered since the last illness, making them prone to catching colds again. The baby currently has a runny nose, cough, phlegm, and wheezing. After ruling out lung infection, oral medication should be used as much as possible, avoiding intravenous fluids if not necessary. This is the advice for the question "Doctor, my child is 19 months old," and I hope it helps you. Wishing you good health!
