Patient's question:
These days, my boss said I'm not in good spirits, which has affected my work performance. Actually, I didn't mean to, either. I often can't sleep at night, sometimes feel anxious and uncomfortable. If it gets worse, I'm worried it might affect my health and work. By the way, how can I help my baby stop coughing when they have a severe cough?Doctor's answer:
Hello, the key to pediatric cough is to identify the cause of the cough. Generally, mild and infrequent coughing helps to expel mucus. After the mucus is expelled, the cough often naturally subsides, so there is no need to use cough suppressants. Severe and frequent coughing is very harmful to the body. For severe dry cough, cough-suppressing medications such as codeine syrup can be used for a short period to help alleviate the cough.
