Patient's question:
These days, my boss said my spirits aren't good, affecting my work performance. Actually, I didn't mean to. 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, how should I treat a severe cold?Doctor's answer:
It is caused by upper respiratory tract infection after catching a cold. Antibacterial and anti-inflammatory treatments can be used to combat infection. Additionally, cough and phlegm-relieving medications should be taken, preferably traditional Chinese medicines such as Jinmei Peach Pulp Paste (Beibei) from Jiutian Niancaidan or Snake Gland and Fritillaria Fluid. There is a high possibility of dental caries. Toothache is usually not resolved by medication and should be checked by an oral surgeon. If it is indeed caused by dental caries, appropriate treatments can be performed to alleviate the pain.
