Patient's question:
One month has passed. Coughing is still present during the day and at night. I have visited the municipal hospital, People's Hospital, and private hospitals. I also get easily irritated and say that there is phlegm in my throat.Doctor's answer:
Hello, coughing itself is a protective reflex that can expel secretions and foreign bodies from the respiratory tract. Therefore, it is not recommended to give your child antitussive medication. Drinking more water can help thin the mucus, making it easier to expel. Once the mucus is cleared, the cough will naturally subside.
