How to treat baby's cough and bronchitis

Many babies suffer from bronchitis, which seriously affects the patient's physical health. Babies can easily develop pneumonia or even tuberculosis because of this problem, so children need timely treatment to ensure their safety. So how to treat baby cough and bronchitis? Let me introduce to you how to treat it.

Coughing in infants and young children is a symptom of cold and respiratory tract infection. If bronchitis is confirmed, active anti-inflammatory treatment is needed. It is recommended that they drink more water, take Qingfei Zhike Granules and Jinlianhua Granules, and test for mycoplasma if necessary to rule out mycoplasma infection, or use macrolide antibiotics, azithromycin or erythromycin for treatment.

Children with bronchitis should pay attention to rest, keep the bedroom well ventilated, and maintain appropriate temperature and humidity. Give easily digestible food and drink plenty of boiled water. Provide vitamin B complex and vitamin C, 1 tablet each, 3 times a day. Children with chronic and recurrent illnesses should be given vitamin AD, 1 tablet each time, 2-3 times a day. For young and weak children with mild symptoms, they can take sulfonamides or penicillins orally, and use certain expectorants and cough suppressants to achieve a synergistic therapeutic effect. Sulfonamides can be used in combination with trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole, 20 mg per kilogram of body weight per day, orally in two divided doses. Since sulfonamides are excreted slowly and can easily cause crystal precipitation in the kidneys, sufficient water should be supplied during medication to facilitate excretion.

Chronic cough is just a symptom of a disease, which includes many diseases with different causes. Chronic bronchitis is only one of the causes of chronic cough and accounts for a very small proportion. Common causes of chronic cough include cough variant asthma, postnasal drip syndrome, eosinophilic bronchitis, gastroesophageal reflux cough, allergic cough, drug-induced cough, etc.

The above is my opinion on this issue. If the patient has the above symptoms, then the patient needs timely treatment to ensure the health of the body and avoid the patient’s safety due to the above problems. Especially if the patient’s condition worsens, the patient must be hospitalized in time to ensure the health of the body. Finally, I wish the patient a speedy recovery.
