Do children with bronchitis need to see a doctor?

Since this disease is almost always a viral infection, there is really not much a doctor can do for a child with bronchitis. But if you want to confirm the diagnosis for your baby or want to have more peace of mind, take him to the hospital for a check-up.

If your baby's cough gets worse after the first few days, or if he has a fever for several days in a row, or if his fever reaches 39.4 degrees Celsius, be sure to tell the doctor. If your baby has wheezing in addition to coughing, or if he coughs up blood, you should also go to the hospital for treatment.

Of course, if your baby has difficulty breathing, you should call 120 emergency number immediately or send your baby to the emergency room.

Pediatricians point out that the best way to prevent bronchitis in children is prevention. Parents should wash their babies' hands frequently, provide them with adequate nutrition, get enough sleep, and avoid contact with other sick people. All the ways parents usually take to prevent illness are helpful in preventing their babies from getting bronchitis. If a child is sick, he should go to a regular hospital to see a doctor in time to avoid the worsening of the disease and harm to the child.
