Patient's question:
These days, my boss said I'm not in good spirits, which has affected my work performance. Actually, I didn't mean to, either. I often can't sleep at night and sometimes feel anxious and uncomfortable. If it gets worse, I'm worried it might affect my health and work. Regarding the cough of a 70-day-old baby, how should it be handled?Doctor's answer:
In your case, it might be a cold-induced cough caused by exposure to wind-cold. This condition is characterized by frequent coughing, thin white phlegm, clear nasal discharge, pale pink tongue with thin white coating, heavy coughing sound, headache, slight fever, and even shortness of breath in severe cases. It can be treated with Saniao Decoction plus herbs that reduce qi and resolve phlegm. It is recommended to take Amoxicillin Granules and Chaihu Granules orally, maintain a light diet, avoid sour, spicy, and greasy foods, and drink plenty of water.
