Patient's question:
The little girl weighs 30 jin and has had a cough for 5 days. The first two days it wasn't serious, only coughing at night. Starting last night, the cough became severe and she had a high fever. She took fever-reducing medicine and the fever went down, but it has been recurring. What should she do?Doctor's answer:
I believe your baby developed pneumonia after catching a cold, which weakened the body's resistance and allowed Mycoplasma to enter the body. The clinical symptoms include fever, coughing, and phlegm. I recommend administering azithromycin and ambroxol via intravenous drip to your baby, encouraging them to drink plenty of warm water, and using oral paracetamol for fever reduction. The diet should consist of light and easily digestible foods, avoiding extremely cold, hard, or irritating foods. Pay attention to preventing colds and to avoid delaying the treatment.
