How to deal with a seven-month-old baby's cough for two days?

Patient's question:

The baby is seven months old and has had a cough for two days. On the 22nd, they had a fever, around 39 degrees Celsius. They went to the hospital for blood tests and X-rays, and were diagnosed with bronchopneumonia. They took the medication for two days and felt it was improving, as the cough was less severe than before. However, today they have been constantly clearing their nose and have non-stop coughing. What could be the situation?

Doctor's answer:

According to your description of your child's condition, bronchopneumonia will cause cough with phlegm, and if the medication is not effective, intravenous infusion can be considered. My suggestion is that it is okay to start with medication and carefully observe the effects. If the medication is not effective, intravenous treatment can be administered. The above advice is for the question "What should I do if my 7-month-old baby has a cough for two days?" I hope it helps you, and I wish the little one a speedy recovery, a healthy body, and a wonderful life.
