What is the reason for the baby's dry cough, hoarse throat, and shortness of breath?

Patient's question:

One-year-old doesn't drink water or eat food. Since yesterday afternoon, she has started coughing. She has been given medicine to clear the lungs and reduce inflammation. Previous treatment and effectiveness: Yesterday, an X-ray was taken using nail blood, and she was given fever-reducing medication. In addition to the Aqijiao medicine, she received another day of intravenous fluids, but her condition hasn't improved. Instead, her cough has become worse. What kind of assistance is needed: What should be done to help the child recover more quickly?

Doctor's answer:

Walnuts 2.5 liang, black sesame seeds 1 liang, red dates 2.5 liang. Crush them and mix them evenly in a large bowl. Add half a spoonful of honey and 1.5 spoonfuls of water (since honey is difficult to mix evenly, you can first warm the honey and water over a fire). Cover the large bowl and place it in a large pot. Boil over high heat, then switch to low heat and steam for 40 minutes. Feed the baby one spoonful in the morning and evening. This formula is most suitable for children to consume, effectively treating prolonged coughs in children, bronchitis, asthma, and also has a very good effect on constipation in children. If this formula is consumed for a long time, it can enhance the baby's constitution.
