Patient's question:
The child is 4 years old. Recently, they got a cold from other children when they started attending kindergarten. They are still running a fever and have been taking medication for treatment. However, there has been no improvement, and the upper respiratory infection has now caused severe coughing, especially at night.What kind of help is needed: How to deal with cough caused by upper respiratory infection in children, and how to treat it?
Doctor's answer:
The baby has experienced relief from many upper respiratory infections through treatment, but it hasn't fully recovered yet. Or, there are still some coughing episodes in the morning and evening. Based on the baby's condition, it may still be necessary to focus on taking many medications to aid in full recovery. Consider taking many traditional Chinese medicines, as they have fewer side effects and can be taken for several more days until the respiratory condition stabilizes. It's important to pay attention to a light diet and drink more water. The indoor environment at night should not be too dry.
