How to treat a runny nose effectively

Patient's question:

Status: Runny nose, listlessness, vomiting milk, appetite: Originally, he would eat some flatbread (made of flour) and similar foods, but now he vomits everything he eats. Other symptoms are quite normal. The illness started on January 29th. It might be because my partner thought it was too hot and didn't dress him properly...

Doctor's answer:

This friend, a runny nose does not necessarily mean a fever, nor is it always necessary to take medicine immediately. In fact, many mild symptoms can be treated with natural remedies, along with more rest and activity, which can also enhance the body's resistance to illness. Especially for babies, whose organs are still growing, taking excessive medication can actually be harmful to their health. It is recommended that parents consult a doctor to determine the severity of the condition before deciding whether or not to give medication.
Advice: Infants and young children are particularly sensitive to external environmental changes and air conditions, so they are prone to runny noses during sudden temperature fluctuations. If parents notice that the room temperature is low, they can turn on a heater to warm the room, which can help relieve nasal congestion and runny nose symptoms.
