Patient's question:
Cough with phlegm sounds like paper tearing. Past treatment and effectiveness: X-ray showed nothing in the lungs, but coughing was relieved by medication. Desired help: Is it effective to eat stewed pear with Fritillaria cirrhosa? Can it be eaten many times a day?Doctor's answer:
According to the situation you described, it is likely caused by bronchitis. It is necessary to conduct a detailed and thorough examination to confirm the diagnosis, and then actively treat it. First, you should maintain a proper diet, drink plenty of water, pay attention to rest, and avoid adverse impacts. Use antibiotics such as penicillin and erythromycin to actively suppress the infection. For cough, use drugs like expectorant and fast-relief cough syrup. If there is a lot of phlegm, use mucosolvan and similar medications. Most cases can improve with these treatments. As for the TCM herbs you mentioned, such as Fritillaria, they can also be used. However, specific treatment should follow the guidance of a clinical physician. The above information is for reference.
