Patient's question:
I am 36 years old this year, and recently I've been feeling unwell. During the day, I sometimes feel dizzy, and it has also affected my work. I can't sleep at night, and the medicine I took doesn't seem to help much. Could you please tell me why a four-month-old baby usually has symptoms of a cold?Doctor's answer:
Hello, a cold is a respiratory infectious disease, so if a family member has it, the baby is quite likely to be infected. If infected, they often experience symptoms such as nasal congestion, runny nose, sneezing, tearing, or mild coughing. During this period, it's also important to monitor the baby's temperature well, as fever can also be one of the most common early symptoms of a cold. Please take another good look at the child, pay attention to air circulation at home, and the family member with a cold should not take the child out.
