Patient's question:
These days, my boss said my spirits aren't good, affecting my work performance. Actually, I don't want to, either. I often can't sleep at night, sometimes feel anxious and uncomfortable. If it gets serious, I'm worried it will affect my health and work. Please ask, if a baby makes a "huffing" sound while breathing, is it a lung disease?Doctor's answer:
In your case, it may be a cold-induced cough caused by exposure to wind and cold. This condition is characterized by frequent coughing, thin white sputum, clear nasal discharge, pale pink tongue with thin white coating, heavy coughing sound, headache, fever, and even shortness of breath in severe cases. It can be treated with San Yao Tang combined with herbs that regulate qi and resolve phlegm. There are many triggers for respiratory issues in children. If the child is diagnosed with a respiratory condition, parents need to cooperate with the doctor for timely treatment, including gastric decompression, and develop good hygiene habits. Parents should be mindful not to let their child develop picky eating habits and ensure a balanced diet.
