Patient's question:
Since the child recovered from their last illness, they have been experiencing mild coughing that sounds like clearing the throat, quite frequently. They have been given Xiao'er Yan Bian Granules and used Kai Hou Jian Spray, which only provides temporary relief, but the coughing persists. Occasionally, they still cough, feeling as if mucus is stuck in their throat. This does not occur during naps. I would like to consult about the cause of this persistent coughing. It has been a month now, and it feels like the child's "giggling" cough has almost become a habit.Doctor's answer:
According to the situation you described, it might still be chronic pharyngitis. Considering the child's current condition, you can take some Xia'er Shuqing Granules to clear heat, detoxify, and soothe the throat. Drink plenty of water. Avoid extremely cold, spicy, and irritating foods in your diet, and eat more fresh vegetables and fruits. The above suggestions are for the question "Since the child recovered from the last illness." I hope it helps you. Wishing you good health!
