Patient's question:
Baby is one and a half months old, a little cough, phlegm in the throat.History of treatment and effectiveness: No allergies, no genetic history.
What help do you want: What should I do?
Doctor's answer:
The child's age is quite young, and some medications are not suitable for the child to take. However, the current situation is that the child is too young and will never cough up phlegm, which is quite troublesome. Given the above, I believe that if the child does not have obvious coughing or high fever, it is best not to give the child excessive medication for treatment. Instead, applying cough and asthma patches to local acupoints on the child can be effective, and this can be combined with pediatric acupuncture treatment for better results. Personally, I can give the child more massage on the ST36 (Zusanli) and BL40 (Fenglong) acupoints. When the child takes a nap, it is recommended to tilt the child's head to one side and elevate the child's back.
