Patient's question:
Post-nasal drip cough has lasted for four days. I went to the gynecology and pediatrics department today to get medicine. After taking one day of antibiotics and Feilike Hejiji, there was no improvement. What should I do?Doctor's answer:
According to the baby having a stuffy nose and coughing for 4 days, it indicates that the baby has experienced a respiratory infection again, such as bronchitis, etc. After only treating it for one day, the symptoms have not improved significantly.1. It is considered that the baby may have bronchitis or other lower respiratory infections. The general course of treatment is about 7 to 10 days. Since only one day of treatment has been administered, the infection has not been suppressed, so the symptoms will not stabilize much.
2. Focus on treating the baby while taking Lufei Ke Heji (Pulmonary Force Cough Syrup) for the baby to take. Drink plenty of water, and if there is a lot of phlegm, you can pat the baby's back to help expel the phlegm. Wishing the baby a speedy recovery~
