Patient's question:
Children cough every time it gets cold, taking medicine doesn't help at all, and at night when they sleep, they cough severely and can't sleep. What's going on? What kind of assistance is needed: Give me a reply, go to the hospital for a basis.Doctor's answer:
For parents, understanding many medical is also very necessary. Generally speaking, cough is a protective reflex. Mild and uniform cough is beneficial for the body to expel sputum. After the sputum is expelled, the cough often naturally subsides. For such children, there is no need to use lung-cleaning drugs. However, for severe but mild cough, lung-cleaning drugs should be used promptly to increase the harmful impact of cough. When coughing, if the sputum is expelled in large amounts and is thick and sticky, it is necessary to emphasize the use of expectorant and antitussive drugs, while also giving the child more fluids to make the sputum thinner, which helps the child expel sputum.
