How to deal with a child's yellow nasal discharge

Patient's question:

A three-year-old child has yellow nasal discharge, stuffy nose at night with loud snoring. How can it be treated?
Previous treatment history and effectiveness: Treated for fever.
What kind of help is needed: What is the cause and how can it be treated?

Doctor's answer:

It should just be a fever, and stuffy airways can also cause snoring. However, if the fever doesn't go away for a long time, it may lead to other diseases. A child's cough may likely lead to pneumonia.
Suggestions: First, give him some steamed pear water with rock sugar or lotus seed and lotus root soup to drink for two days. If it doesn't improve, then see a traditional Chinese medicine practitioner. Don't blindly buy medicine at the slightest problem, as that can have significant side effects on children with weakened immunity.
The above advice is for the question "Child has yellow nasal discharge and recently has difficulty breathing at night while napping." I hope it helps. Wishing you good health!
