Patient's question:
My son is exactly three years old this year, a lively and adorable little guy, and he is now already attending kindergarten. In the past few days, he has had a slight cold and has been coughing for several consecutive days. After a thorough check-up at the pet hospital, it turned out to be bronchitis. What are some home remedies for treating children's bronchitis?Doctor's answer:
Bronchitis is generally caused by bacterial infections, and there are usually no effective home remedies. It is recommended that you give your child oral cephalosporin anti-inflammatory drugs and lung-cleansing, blood-cooling medications. When coughing is severe, you can also use a nebulizer for treatment or apply a lung-cleansing patch. In daily life, encourage your child to drink more plain water, eat more vegetables and fruits, and reduce the intake of spicy foods. In severe cases, you can take your child to the hospital for intravenous drip treatment.
