Patient's question:
I don't know what's going on, but my child has been misbehaving lately and crying non-stop. Even the hospital check-up didn't help. Could you please tell me how to handle a 1-year-old baby with a cough and runny nose?Doctor's answer:
Hello, children exposed to cold air may develop a runny nose due to sensitivity. Symptoms like morning runny nose or nasal congestion are often caused by allergies, and the nasal discharge is clear. However, colds can also cause a runny nose. If the discharge is yellow, it may indicate a viral infection. For common colds, medications such as Sang Ju Ganmao Pian (Mulberry and Orange Peel Cold Relief Tablets), Xiao Er Gan Ma Chong Ji (Children's Cold Relief Powder), Ban Lan Gen Chong Ji (Isatis Root Granules), Yin Qiao Jie Du (Forsythia and Peony Decoction), Liu Shen Wan (Liu Shen Pills), and Vitamin C can be taken for relief.
