How to treat acute bronchitis

Patient's question:

I went to the hospital because of a cold and fever. I was diagnosed with acute bronchitis. After treatment, the fever subsided, but the cold hasn't improved. I have a cough with yellow phlegm, and the back of my nose also feels yellow when I sniff. My throat is dry, I have a headache, and I feel weak all over. When I walk inside, I sweat. What's wrong with me?

Doctor's answer:

According to your description, you have recently experienced a recurrence of fever and cold. After treatment, the fever has subsided, but in addition to the symptom of coughing up yellow phlegm, effective antibiotics should be administered in coordination for treatment. Generally, recovery can be expected within about half a month. During this period, it is important to rest, avoid overexertion and mental stress. The diet should be light, avoiding spicy and irritating foods. Fresh vegetables and fruits should be consumed in abundance, and it is advisable to drink more water, which will help in recovery.
