Patient's question:
Previously, I had one episode of acute laryngitis and one episode of bronchitis a month ago. After treatment, I fully recovered. Two days ago, I caught a cold with yellow nasal discharge and coughed continuously for. During the last cough, I couldn't control my eyes from widening and my face turned red. My throat and nose made hollow sounds.Onset and Cause: Two days ago.
Treatment: After taking medication, my nasal discharge is slightly yellow, but the coughing is still very severe.
Help Needed: Is there any specific illness I might have?
Doctor's answer:
Keep the indoor air fresh, often open windows for ventilation, open windows at least twice a day for 20 minutes each time, which can reduce the chance of respiratory infections. Maintain a suitable indoor temperature and humidity, with a room temperature of around 22-25 degrees Celsius and a humidity of 50%-60%.Finally, let the child stay away from public places as much as possible, especially during cold outbreaks. Avoid taking the child to crowded public places like shopping malls or supermarkets, and do not visit sick people to prevent cross-infection. Drink more rock sugar pears or pear-white radish water.
It is recommended to check the throat first to see if there is any redness or swelling. You can take Wind-Cooling Cough Syrup, Roxithromycin Granules, or Huanglian Decoction to avoid catching a cold at night from wind exposure.
