Patient's question:
My child has been coughing recently, especially severely when sleeping at night. There is thick phlegm. At first, they had a high fever, and the hospital diagnosed it as tracheitis. They took three days of medication and recovered. However, they easily get sick whenever the weather changes. They have this condition about four or five times a year. What can be done to help my child with tracheitis?Doctor's answer:
Hello, your baby often coughs and has a fever, with bronchitis. This indicates that your baby's constitution is weak. The respiratory system of the baby is still developing, and in the early stages, it is easy to get respiratory infections. As the baby grows, the respiratory system gradually improves, and the chance of respiratory infections decreases. Now, you can let your child do more outdoor activities to enhance their immunity. Additionally, you can use some medications to boost the body's immunity, but it is important to use them under the guidance of a doctor at the hospital.
