Patient's question:
The baby woke up with a stuffy nose yesterday morning, but it was fine during the day. Last night, he coughed a few times. This morning, he woke up with a stuffy nose again, feeling like there was phlegm in his throat. He coughed a few times, and just now, he started to have a little clear nasal discharge. Everyone says it's best not to give medicine to babies who are too young, but I heard it's a viral cold now. Is pediatric acupuncture effective? Or should I go to the hospital for medicine?Doctor's answer:
According to your description, it is recommended that you take your child to a pediatrician for a follow-up visit. The doctor will conduct a detailed physical examination and related tests to clarify your child's condition. Based on the test results, treatment will be guided accordingly. Please actively cooperate with the treatment as recommended by the doctor. Wishing your little one a speedy recovery. It is suggested to have a blood test to confirm if it is a viral infection. Drink plenty of warm water. Wishing the patient a quick return to good health!
