Patient's question:
The baby has been coughing at night since birth, with phlegm in the throat. The doctor recommended doing a nebulizer treatment, but why does it feel like the coughing gets worse after the treatment? They are also taking E. Now, during the day, there is a little bit of nasal discharge and a few coughs, while at night, the coughing is more frequent.Doctor's answer:
A complete recovery from the illness requires a process. After the atomization treatment, the secretions adhering to the tracheal wall will shed, so coughing will be relieved. The amount of sputum will continuously increase, which is also part of the mucus-removing process. It is recommended to have a lung percussion or chest X-ray in the pediatric department of a regular hospital to carefully observe the response after medication. Clean your mouth before and after atomization. You can drink water and have a bowel movement half an hour after the atomization. I hope my explanation helps you.
