Patient's question:
My daughter's cold this time is quite severe, especially with her coughing and wheezing badly. She can't even walk properly; after just a few steps, she gets out of breath. The medicine hasn't been very effective. After taking her to the hospital for a check-up, they diagnosed her with bronchial asthma. How should I take care of her on a daily basis?Doctor's answer:
Hello, assist patients in expectorating by guiding them to sit up, lean forward, and encourage them to cough to bring up phlegm. When phlegm is thick, advise patients to drink more water. For patients with difficulty breathing, provide oxygen and administer continuous oxygen via nasal cannula as per doctor's orders, ensuring humidification before oxygenation.
