What is the situation with a 2.5-year-old child having a cough?

Patient's question:

Morning and evening coughing, no problems in the afternoon

Doctor's answer:

Hello, considering the possibility of a cold, it usually involves symptoms such as coughing, phlegm production, and fever. The measured body temperature does not need to be adjusted by adding 0.5 degrees—anything above 37 degrees is considered a fever. You can use Children's Paracetamol and Dextromethorphan Granules for treatment. Drink plenty of water, and it's very important to keep warm. In necessary cases, intravenous fluids can be used for treatment.
There are many reasons that can cause respiratory issues in children. If the child is confirmed to have a respiratory condition, parents need to cooperate with the doctor in active treatment, assist with gastrointestinal decompression, and develop good hygiene habits. The child should have a balanced diet and avoid stimulating and cold foods.
