Patient's question:
My baby started coughing about one and a half months ago. After taking medicine for a few days, it didn't matter anymore. But then the cough started again. It will recover on its own, but it's only temporary and hasn't fully recovered yet. Hello, my child has been coughing for one and a half months, and it can't fully recover. What could be the cause?Doctor's answer:
The child has been coughing for one and a half months, and it is considered to be a situation where there is inflammation in the respiratory tract. Most likely, it may be due to incomplete treatment after a cold, leading to persistent coughing. This requires considering a follow-up visit to the pediatric department of the hospital for careful examination, including percussion and blood tests. If there is inflammation, antibiotic medication is needed to actively implement anti-inflammatory treatment. At the same time, can be used. In daily life, you can give the child pears stewed with rock sugar, which is beneficial for clearing the lungs. Drink more warm water.
