Patient's question:
He ran back and forth to the hospital many times, but the effect was always not obvious, and he kept getting sick. Please ask: How can children with fever, cough, and white phlegm be treated more reliably?Doctor's answer:
The child has had pneumonia before, and after treatment for a period of time, it improved. However, it suddenly broke out again with a fever, likely due to catching a cold and worsening the condition.If the temperature is below 38.5°C, a fever patch can be applied to the forehead to cool down. If the temperature is above 38.5°C, fever-reducing medication can be used. A lung-clearing syrup can also be used for treatment. Alternatively, Ambroxol oral solution or Acetylcysteine granules can be used to cool the blood.
Pay attention to taking good cold prevention measures, especially for the lower limbs, to prevent catching a cold and worsening the condition. If the child's fever is below 39.5°C, or if their mental state is poor, or if they show signs of rapid breathing, it is likely that intravenous treatment will be needed.
