After massaging the acupoints, pay attention to feeding the child some warm water to relieve the dryness of the throat, which has a good moisturizing and physical therapy effect on the throat. Drinking more cold boiled water can dilute the viscous secretion, and it is easy to cough up, which is conducive to relieving cough and resolving phlegm and eliminating local inflammation.

The inclination of the pillow is about 20-30 degrees, and the head is low and the feet are high on the pillow. Using gravity, the sputum in the lungs automatically flows out.

Let the child sleep on the pillow sideways, either on the left side or on the right side, with the same head down and feet high. Because putting the body in different positions will make the accumulated phlegm in different parts of the lungs easily discharged.

Fingers slightly bent, holding into an empty fist shape, gently patting the chest and side chest and back, alternating sides. Pat on the back can loosen the sputum in children's lungs and bronchi, promote cardiopulmonary blood circulation, and cure the disease early.

You can dilute the sputum with steam rising from hot water through your nose for about 20 minutes at a time. Parents should be protected during treatment to prevent burns.

If the symptoms are not relieved, you can see a doctor.
