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 will affect my health and work. How can I help my baby cough up phlegm?Doctor's answer:
Hello, you can help your child cough up phlegm. It's important to do it frequently. When patting, use your hollow palm and apply more force, like patting a blanket. It might sound a bit scary, but the hollow palm won't hurt. Pat from the bottom up, but don't pat directly in the center of the back. Instead, pat the sides. Encourage your child to drink more water to make it easier to cough up phlegm. However, avoid sugary drinks. For cough, it's better to use Azithromycin or Erythromycin for treatment. Avoid spicy, irritating, and cold foods. Eat more fresh vegetables to increase nutrition, replenish vitamins, and protein.
