Patient's question:
I don't know what's going on, but my child has been misbehaving lately and crying non-stop. Even the hospital check-up didn't help. I was wondering if eating honey-cooked pears is effective for a child's cough?Doctor's answer:
Your condition may be a wind-cold cough, which is caused by exposure to wind-cold. This syndrome is characterized by frequent coughing, thin and white phlegm, clear nasal discharge, pale pink tongue with thin white coating, heavy coughing sound, headache, body fever, and even shortness of breath in severe cases. It can be treated with San Yao Tang combined with herbs that reduce qi and resolve phlegm. Hello, I recommend getting a chest X-ray to check for symptoms of bronchitis and pneumonia. If anti-inflammatory treatment with one antibiotic does not improve after three days, you can switch to another antibiotic and combine it with cough and phlegm-relieving medications.
