The treatment of recurrent cough due to tracheitis in children should follow these steps: 1. Actively treat the condition, avoid sources of infection, maintain clean indoor air, ensure good ventilation, and prevent exposure to pollutants. 2. Administer appropriate medication, such as antibiotics and anti-inflammatory drugs, depending on the specific condition. Medications must be taken strictly as prescribed by a physician and should not be used without medical guidance. 3. Supportive therapies may also be used, including pulmonary function tests, airway care, and chest physiotherapy, which can effectively promote the resolution of coughing. 4. Provide adequate nutritional support by encouraging consumption of vitamin-rich foods such as vegetables, fruits, fish, and eggs to enhance the body's resistance to infection and speed up recovery.
