Patient's question:
A 6-year-old child has a cough and low-grade fever that hasn't improved after visiting several hospitals. X-rays show some bronchitis, and they recommend intravenous fluids. Considering the child is young, they didn't want to undergo the procedure and instead received cephalexin. After taking it for two days, the symptoms improved slightly, but they've worsened again in the last two days, and the situation is still the same. Do they necessarily need to receive intravenous fluids?Doctor's answer:
Bronchitis, pay attention to the removal of phlegm from the throat to avoid phlegm blocking the respiratory tract. There are self-healing methods, but only symptomatic treatment can be encouraged to suppress symptoms. Intravenous fluid treatment is the best option. Azithromycin combined with Mucosolvan can be used for treatment, which is effective. Be careful to prevent cold when it's cold, don't catch a cold, and avoid spicy foods. The above suggestions are for the question "A 6-year-old child has a cough and high fever that doesn't go away, what should I do after visiting several hospitals?" I hope it helps you. Wish you health!
