Patient's question:
These days, my boss said I'm not in good spirits, which has affected my work performance. Actually, I don't want to, either. I always can't sleep at night, and sometimes I feel my heart racing and feel uncomfortable. If it gets worse, I'm worried it will affect my health and work. Can a baby with a sore throat and phlegm develop pneumonia?Doctor's answer:
Hello, considering it might be pharyngitis, you can take Qinghuo capsules or undergo intravenous treatment, mainly with anti-inflammatory drugs. It is very important not to eat spicy or irritating foods, and drinking more boiled water is beneficial for symptom improvement.For viral colds, if there is no secondary bacterial infection, the course of the illness is approximately 7 to 10 days. Drinking more water, resting more, and not treating it can lead to self-recovery. Taking cold medicine and symptomatic medications can shorten the duration of the illness and alleviate symptoms such as fever, headache, nasal congestion, runny nose, and body aches.
