Patient's question:
Lately, my boss has said that I'm not in good spirits and it's affecting my work performance. Actually, I don't want 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. What should I do if my ten-month-old baby has a slight cough?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 sputum, clear nasal discharge, pale red tongue with thin white coating, heavy coughing sound, headache, 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. This is a recurring upper respiratory tract infection caused by low immunity. It is recommended to take Shan Xiang Yuan Granules, Transfer Factor Oral Liquid, and Vitamin C tablets for treatment. Avoid sour, spicy, and greasy foods.
