Repeated cough with sputum for over a month, the sputum is viscous, and the symptoms mentioned above also appear at night.
Doctor's answer:
Generally, it's worth considering traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) for bronchitis, as TCM and herbal medicine have unique advantages in treating it. Commonly used formulas include Xiao Qing Long Tang (Little Blue Dragon Decoction) and Ma Xing Shi Gan Tang (Hemp and Apricot Kernel with Gypsum Decoction). Over-the-counter herbal pills like Tong Xuan Li Fei Wan (Promote Lung Qi and Disperse Phlegm Pills) and Qi Guang Wan (Bronchitis Pills) are also worth considering. There are many causes of respiratory issues in children. If a child is diagnosed with a respiratory condition, parents need to cooperate with the doctor to start treatment immediately, assist with gastrointestinal decompression, and develop good hygiene habits. Children should have a balanced diet and avoid stimulating and cold foods.
