18. Respiratory Distress After a Cold in Children

Question: My child is three and a half years old and has been experiencing severe breathing difficulties since catching a cold. What could be the cause, and what medication should be given?

Answer: The child likely has chronic pharyngitis, and the cold has exacerbated local inflammation, leading to increased secretions and snoring. Combined with varying degrees of toxic symptoms, this can worsen the upper respiratory infection.
