Patient's question:
The baby has had a cold and cough for over six months, and it hasn't improved in two months. In this time, she has visited the doctor many times and taken medications like Cefixime, Feipilike, and Qingxuan Qingfei... Sometimes she seems to be getting better, but then it worsens again after a couple of days, like this, back and forth.Doctor's answer:
According to your description, a cold will never last for two months. A cold is a self-limiting illness, usually lasting about a week. If the child coughs for two weeks, it may be caused by bronchitis or other conditions. It is recommended to take the child to the pediatric department of the hospital for re-examination, including blood tests, Mycoplasma pneumoniae tests, chest X-rays, and other detailed tests to understand the condition of the urinary tract and lungs. At the same time, continue to take Azithromycin or Cephalaxin and other medications to relieve symptoms until they disappear before stopping the medication. Pay attention to keeping the child warm in daily life.
