Patient's question:
4th and 5th, I had a slight fever and diarrhea. After visiting the doctor, I felt better the next day. It's been a bit cold these last couple of days (2-8 degrees Celsius). Starting on the 8th and 9th, I started feeling a bit nauseous, and on the 10th, I started coughing.Doctor's answer:
Your condition may be due to external wind-cold and internal dampness accumulation. It is recommended to treat with modified Huoxiang Zhengqi Powder, which primarily consists of herbs such as patchouli, atractylodes rhizome, tangerine peel, magnolia bark, angelica sinensis, poria, large-leafed guinea pepper, pinellia, licorice, and perilla. It has the effects of dispelling cold, resolving dampness, harmonizing the stomach, and expelling summer heat. There are many reasons that can cause respiratory issues in children. If the child is confirmed to have a respiratory condition, parents should cooperate with the doctor to start treatment immediately, assist with gastrointestinal decompression, and develop good hygiene habits. Parents should pay attention not to let the child develop picky eating habits and ensure a balanced diet.
