Patient's question:
Doctor, hello. I would like to consult a doctor about a question. I hope the doctor can give me some advice. My child has been coughing for a while recently. Oh, the hospital's examination found it to be bronchitis. They prescribed some medicine and then left. My child has had bronchitis for more than a month, still coughing with phlegm but no fever. What should I do? I hope the doctor can give me some advice.Doctor's answer:
Currently, the child is constantly coughing with phlegm, and the main consideration is that the phlegm is not being expelled. It is recommended to first decide to use some methods of inhaling with a nebulizer, mainly to help dissolve the phlegm. This can effectively enhance the removal of phlegm. Since the child is young, they will not cough up phlegm on their own. It is suggested to primarily help the child by gently patting their back frequently, which can further improve the phlegm expulsion. At the same time, oral cooling blood medicine should be taken.
