Patient's question:
The child has been coughing for over a month, with the condition fluctuating and not improving. Sometimes there is phlegm, sometimes it's a light cough. They have taken TCM medicine and Azithromycin, but it hasn't helped, and they are still coughing.Doctor's answer:
This is still respiratory inflammation. If the oral medication is not effective, it is important to promptly revisit the local hospital for a thorough examination. Children are prone to developing tracheitis and pneumonia after a common cold. You can revisit the pediatric department of the local hospital for a thorough examination, including chest X-rays and blood tests, to determine if there is tracheitis or pneumonia. After a clear diagnosis, appropriate adjustments to the medication can be made under the guidance of a doctor to implement treatment.
