Patient's question:
I've had a cold for a long time and I'm still coughing. It hasn't gotten better yet. I don't know where there are acupuncture techniques for treating colds and coughs. Does anyone know acupuncture techniques for treating colds and coughs?Doctor's answer:
Dear consultant, after suffering from a cold and cough, it is not advisable to use acupuncture and massage methods. Treatment should be carried out by taking cold and cough medications based on symptoms. Without fever, but with symptoms such as runny nose, hiccups, and cough, it is recommended to use Methylphenidate Oral Liquid combined with Chlorpheniramine Dispersible Tablets and Compound Dextromethorphan Lung Cleansing Syrup for treatment. If the cough persists for more than a week without improvement, it is necessary to go to the hospital for a thorough examination to determine if it is caused by Mycoplasma infection or other factors.
