Patient's question:
The child has been coughing for a week, but the medicine hasn't helped. The doctor tapped and said it was bronchitis. Today, the blood test results were inconclusive—some said it was a viral infection, while others said it was bacterial. They prescribed different medications.Doctor's answer:
The baby has been coughing for a week, but the medication hasn't helped. The doctor has diagnosed bronchitis, and blood tests show high white blood cell count, suggesting a bacterial infection. The doctor recommends following the prescribed medication, which includes anti-inflammatory and lung-cleansing treatments. It's important to keep the baby warm and avoid catching a cold. Avoid spicy and irritating foods, and make sure the baby drinks plenty of water. In daily life, it's essential to closely monitor the child's symptoms and seek medical attention promptly if they worsen.
