Listen to both lungs and chest X-ray show no obvious abnormalities, but still cough, what to do?

Patient's question:

Percussion of both lungs and chest X-ray showed no significant abnormalities. Past treatment history and outcomes: At six months, a thorough examination was conducted at a children's hospital, revealing only a positive tuberculin test with no other abnormalities. What kind of assistance is needed: Confirmation of diagnosis and treatment.

Doctor's answer:

Based on your description; if the child always coughs in the morning after a fever, sometimes accompanied by dry cough, and the use of cephalosporin and macrolide antibiotics, as well as lung-cleansing and blood-cooling medications, does not show significant improvement, with each episode lasting at least a month, and physical examination of both lungs and chest X-rays showing no obvious abnormalities, and a careful examination of the tuberculin test is positive, then it is not considered to be pneumonia or tuberculosis-induced. It is instead caused by digestive disorders, anemia, and a lack of trace elements. To stabilize this condition, it is necessary to address the digestive system, trace elements, digestive Qi and blood, and take medications that aid in absorption and clear heat.
