Patient's question:
My baby recently caught a cold and got better after taking medicine. Then, he started coughing. Also, he couldn't sleep well at night. So, I took him to the hospital for a checkup, and they said he had bronchitis. I'm very worried.Doctor's answer:
Hello, child with bronchitis. First and foremost, it is important to undergo standard anti-inflammatory treatment. When caring for your child, parents should pay attention to the following aspects:1. Drink small amounts of water frequently. The water temperature should not be too hot to avoid irritating the throat.
2. During severe coughing fits, it is best to hold the child upright, positioning their upper body at a 45-degree angle. At the same time, gently pat their back with your hand to help loosen any secretions stuck in the trachea, making it easier for them to cough them out.
