Patient's question:
Always coughing, initially had a high fever of 38.5°C. The doctor said it was a stomach issue. A couple of days later, the fever subsided, but after playing outside, I caught a cold again. After taking medicine for a week, it didn’t improve. Now I have yellow nasal discharge and cough with phlegm, occasionally coughing, especially when exposed to cold air. The doctor listened to my trachea and found no inflammation.Previous treatment history and effectiveness: I’ve had this condition before. IV fluids didn’t help, but later taking ambroxol and loratadine worked. However, this time, after drinking two bottles of medicine, it hasn’t improved.
What kind of assistance is needed: Please provide treatment suggestions or methods. Thank you.
Doctor's answer:
Hello doctor, my son is 1 year and 8 months old. He keeps coughing. At first, he had a high fever of 38.5°C, and the doctor said he had a stomachache. A couple of days later, the fever went away, but he got cold while playing outside. After taking medicine for a week, it didn’t get better. Now he has yellow nasal discharge and coughs with phlegm, occasionally coughing, especially when exposed to cold wind. The doctor listened to his trachea for a few seconds and didn’t give any advice.It is recommended to take the child to a larger children’s hospital for a follow-up visit as soon as possible! I hope the child gets better quickly! Finally, wishing you good health! Encouragement!
