Why does my child always cough?

Many children are very prone to diseases because of their poor resistance and immunity due to their young age. Coughing is a common disease among children. Many parents do not know what causes their children to cough. So, why do children always like to cough?

First, why do children always like to cough? Every time the season changes, children may cough collectively, and once they start coughing, the cough will not go away, which makes parents feel distressed and anxious. What’s even more frustrating is that the child had been coughing for a long time and had been taking medicine for a long time, but the condition didn’t improve after taking the medicine, so I took the child to see a doctor again, and the doctor continued to prescribe medicine. Taking medicine all the time is not a solution, and the child is so young, taking medicine all the time will have a great impact on the body, but it will be more difficult to get better if he doesn't take medicine, so why does he keep coughing? There has been no improvement, so taking medicine and seeing a doctor are commonplace, and taking X-rays are necessary. First, check if there are any major problems with the lungs, and then check if there is any infection with chlamydia and mycoplasma. If they are all infected with viruses, taking medicine may not be very effective, and you need to take some azithromycin or the like, and it will take about a month.

Second, parents may also be aware that if their children’s cough does not get better, it may be due to lung heat. In this case, the symptoms are mild, but the cycle is long, and the cough and sputum cannot be relieved quickly, so even taking antibiotics and other drug treatments will have little effect. Although I know it is lung heat, there is nothing I can do about it. I am also worried that if I continue coughing like this, it will turn into a variant cough, which is asthma.

Why do children always like to cough? Coughing is the most common disease among children. When they go to the hospital or clinic to see a doctor, they are often told: respiratory tract infection, antibiotics, cough suppressants, which are usually effective in a short time. The terrible thing is that after a few days, the child starts coughing again. They have to see a doctor again, take medicine again, and if they have phlegm, they have to use expectorants and nebulizers. This goes on for another week. What's even worse is that the child has taken a lot of medicine and has a fever again. The doctor then suggests: give him an infusion to prevent pneumonia... It seems that this cough will never get better, and the parents are exhausted from the hassle.
