Patient's question:
Boy, four years old, with bad breath, often catching colds, coughing since winter began. After seeing a doctor, the cough improved but he still has nasal congestion, nosebleeds, poor appetite, and sore throat. How should he be treated? How should his body be adjusted to strengthen his constitution?First follow-up question: Recently, he has had red eyes and excessive purulent discharge similar to eye discharge. He has seen a doctor and taken medication, but it hasn't been fully cured and keeps recurring. Sometimes he grinds his teeth at night.
Doctor's answer:
?Hello; the situation you described should be due to qi deficiency in children, leading to weakened immunity. Nosebleeds are caused by lung heat.If the method for treating nosebleeds involves pressure, you should press for at least 5 minutes without checking after a short while. Additionally, applying erythromycin eye ointment and Yunnan Baiyao will help stop bleeding, reduce inflammation, and prevent ulcers from forming.
To boost immunity, you can use Yu Ping Feng Granules. Exercise more and get the flu vaccine promptly.
