Patient's question:
Lately, I've been feeling some coughing with phlegm. The other day, while cooking at home, I made stir-fried pork kidneys. It might have been because the heat was a bit too high, and then I kept coughing non-stop. Later, I went to the hospital for a thorough check-up and found out that I had lung infection. What Chinese medicine should be taken for lung infection?Doctor's answer:
Based on the information, you are likely suffering from lung infection. Patients with lung infection are advised to use antibacterial and anti-inflammatory medications for treatment. Oral administration of Cephalexin capsules and Yangling Qingfei pills can be used for symptomatic treatment.During medication, it is recommended that patients pay attention to their diet, consume more nutritious and easily digestible foods, and avoid spicy and irritating foods. It is also advised not to overexert oneself and to maintain a balanced diet while getting adequate rest.
