Patient's question:
The baby is nine months old. Lately, they have been coughing a lot, sometimes appearing very tired. Their throat often has a rustling sound. How should this be treated?? Onset date: December 20th Previous treatment and effectiveness: Cough medicine was given, but it had no effect! Desired assistance: Want to know how to treat it and what medicine to take!Doctor's answer:
The child should have developed an upper respiratory infection due to a fever, and the gurgling sound in the throat may be caused by phlegm. Since the child is very young, they will not be able to cough it out.Medical Advice: As the illness has been ongoing for some time, I recommend giving the baby antibiotics such as Azithromycin and expectorants like Ambroxol, which have shown good effects.
Lifestyle Care: Ensure the child drinks plenty of water and consumes foods rich in vitamins, such as fresh vegetables and fruits.
