Patient's question:
My granddaughter has a cough, especially after lying down. She has white, thick nasal discharge, but no fever and no yellow discharge. She doesn't have a good appetite. I'm not sure if it's wind-cold or wind-heat. Could you please help me determine the condition? She has been given Er Gan Qing oral liquid and Geli Te oral water. Could you please advise on what medicine to take?Doctor's answer:
I think this condition is better treated with traditional Chinese medicine. I recommend using Compound Loquat Paste and Fresh Bamboo Juice for treatment. Rest as much as possible, which can alleviate the condition. Always keep your body warm to prevent catching a cold. Drink plenty of water to help your body digest the excessive fluid consumed.For Western medicine, I suggest intravenous administration of Azithromycin and Qingkailing Injection. The treatment should be administered via infusion for about 5 days. In daily life, it is best to pay attention to dietary habits and other aspects.
