Patient's question:
My baby has been having phlegm in her throat recently. We gave her a medicine specifically for infant bronchitis, and it worked well after taking it. However, after stopping the medicine, she got sick again after a while. She's only one year old, and we can't bear to see her in so much pain. What should we do about infant bronchitis?Doctor's answer:
The occurrence of this illness in children may be related to factors such as their relatively weak immunity and slower recovery ability. If the symptoms are currently quite noticeable, it is best to first undergo a thorough examination in the pediatric department of the hospital. At this moment, we can consider the possibility of a respiratory infection, but we cannot diagnose bronchitis. It is necessary to have blood tests, such as a chest X-ray, conducted for a detailed examination, and follow the doctor's advice for medication.
