How long does acute bronchitis in infants usually last?

Patient's question:

Recently, I've been experiencing chest pain and tightness in my chest. The hospital examination suggested a respiratory disease, but the medication hasn't been very effective. Recently, my cough has worsened. Could you please tell me how long it usually takes for acute bronchitis in infants to recover?

Doctor's answer:

Children with tracheitis generally need about a week to gradually recover completely. Children with inflammation are prone to experiencing unstable body temperature issues again. It is recommended to use fever-reducing medication if the body temperature is too high, while also ensuring meticulous physical cooling. During this period, proper feeding of the child should be paid attention to, and hygiene should be maintained to ensure cleanliness. At the same time, measures should be taken to prevent colds. A detailed blood test can also be conducted to confirm if there are any other issues.
