Depends. Sometimes can last for 1 to 2 weeks. But if I can see she's coughing less over the days, I'm not too worried. If getting worse even after medication, then I'll bring her to see dr again.

Anyway, Irene, hope your dd recover soon.

Around 3-4 days,
we take the kids to see the doctor for a safer way. :001_302:

usually for bad cough to reovered, beside flumcil(powder for phelgm) n cough syrup fr docs...i think certain foods u need to avoid..like biscuits...sweet juice...cold fruits.......vege like potato/sweet potato i will also avoid accordingly to what my mama generation said...as they are starchy.....and cabbages.(cooling, according to my friend who is also a chinese physician )..try to let her sleep in non-aircon nite, it definitely help....to relieve too..
