Patient's question:
The child has had a cough and runny nose for four days. Even after taking medicine, it hasn't improved. The cough is worse at night when sleeping or napping.Previous treatment and effectiveness: The child was examined by a doctor at the hospital. The doctor said there was nothing serious and prescribed some medicine. I suggested that the child receive two days of intravenous drips. What assistance is needed: Hello, is the child taking the medicine diligently? Is there any medicine that works faster?
Doctor's answer:
If the child is in a good mental state and coughing is not very frequent, it should not be a major issue. The consideration is that it could be a common respiratory infection or urethral inflammation. You can start with medication and carefully observe the situation. If oral medication does not show any effect after more than three days, it is best to go to the hospital for a check-up. If necessary, intravenous infusion may be required, and you can also coordinate with using a nebulizer for inhalation. The above suggestions are for the question "What to eat for a child with cough and runny nose to have a quick effect?" It is hoped that this will be helpful to you. Wishing you good health!
