What should I do if my baby gets bronchopneumonia at six months old?

Patient's question:

When the baby was six months old, he had bronchopneumonia and was hospitalized for ten days. After discharge, he had a relapse a week later and received intravenous treatment at a local children's hospital for another ten days or so. Now that he's eight months old, he keeps having relapses. What should we do?

Doctor's answer:

Your baby's condition exhibits symptoms of a cough according to Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM). TCM believes that the primary cause is exposure to wind-cold due to carelessness in diet and daily routines. Pay attention to preventing cold exposure. Avoid raw, cold foods and fruits, as many cooling foods are not suitable for coughs. Currently, you can take Wind-Dispelling, Cold-Relieving, Lung-Cleansing, and Phlegm-Expelling Granules for wind-cold coughs, and also take Children's Lung-Purifying Syrup. The above advice is for the question "Bronchopneumonia at 6 months old for a baby." It is hoped that it will be helpful to you. Wishing you good health!
