Children experiencing sweating and coughing can use medications such as salbutamol aerosol and fluticasone propionate aerosol under a doctor's guidance to alleviate symptoms. Anti-inflammatory medications can also be used to control inflammation, such as Pudilan Anti-inflammatory Oral Liquid. In addition, it is important to stay warm, drink plenty of water, which can also promote recovery from the illness.
