How should the treatment be for children with cough and phlegm when the condition is better or worse?

Patient's question:

Doctor, my child has been coughing frequently for the past half month. There is phlegm but it can't be coughed up, and it comes back again after a few days. Medication treatment hasn't helped much. I wanted to ask you, when a child has a cough with phlegm, and the condition keeps getting better and worse, what should we do? Could it be bronchitis?

Doctor's answer:

Hello, cough with phlegm may be caused by a lung infection, related to tracheitis, or due to improper diet leading to stomach issues in children. It is necessary to conduct detailed tests to confirm the specific problem. Based on the specific symptoms, the exact condition needs to be identified. Follow medical advice and use appropriate medication for repair and recovery. Pay attention to controlling body temperature.
