phlegm suction

Ben's phlegm getting worst i heard this morning, without hesitation i brought him to doctor musa. He did not check on ben's throat nor fever. He only listen to his lungs and asked me what medicine i fed him, later he suggest chest physiotherapy and indicate that we might need phlegm suction (depends on physio advise). I don't know why it's so bad this time, he only cough for 5 days :( The suction process made me worry about my boy - he is being wrapped and screaming non-stop + moving in pain i think. After the treatment the physio said still have a little bit but she cannot continue because ben seems very restless already. She suggest a few days later if still can hear thick phlegm, bring him back for another suction. Meanwhile at home i need to do patting and hopefully the phlegm will stop with the help of nebulizer.

Poor boy, andrea does not have to do suction last time, maybe because she is a master of vomiting! Vomit almost every night when she is young, cough few times then vomit already. I'm helpless to see him struggling just now. Sigh ... I don't know how when i go back to work in december. I just hope the part time will work out and i can stop working, both of my babies health is very bad. They are always sick, but this time was daddy brought back the virus.
