Patient's question:
These days, my boss said my spirits aren't good, affecting my work performance. Actually, I don't want to, either. I always can't sleep at night, sometimes feel anxious and uncomfortable. If it gets serious, I'm worried it will affect my health and work. Please ask, what medicine can children take for prolonged cough?Doctor's answer:
In your case, it might be a cold-induced cough caused by exposure to wind and cold. This condition is characterized by frequent coughing, thin white sputum, clear nasal discharge, pale pink tongue with thin white coating, heavy coughing sound, headache, slight fever, and in severe cases, shortness of breath. It can be treated with Saniao Decoction plus herbs that regulate qi and resolve phlegm.You don’t need to continue taking medication for this. It usually moves into the intestines, so you can resume taking it the next day. Treatment for Mycoplasma infection requires a longer course of medication.
Wishing the baby good health!
