My child has been coughing for three months after recovering from a cold. After bursts of coughing,

Patient's question:

Patient is male, 2 years and 5 months old, previously did not cough after colds
Current condition:
1. Coughs in fits, but cannot cough up phlegm,
2. After each fit of coughing, there is a symptom of wanting to vomit

Doctor's answer:

Hello, your baby's cough with phlegm is likely a symptom of bronchitis caused by a cold. You can use children's cough syrup, Bromhexine, combined with antibiotics like Azithromycin or Amoxicillin for treatment. You can also give your baby some rock sugar pear juice or stewed snow pears with Fritillaria, which can also be quite effective in relieving cough and phlegm. Make sure to drink plenty of water, keep warm, and avoid catching a cold.
