“The reason why the milkweed can get into L’s airway is due to the habit of using water from the stream directly for eating and living of the patient’s family. Mostly, the water source is in the streams and creeks in the region. High mountains have a lot of forest extractors, so every time people drink water, it is easy for them to get into their bodies. Therefore, we advise people to use boiled water and limit drinking water from streams,” said one doctor. Recommended by doctor of Nghe An Obstetrics and Pediatrics Hospital.
