Patient's question:
Recently, there have been a lot of people catching colds outside. My baby currently: occasionally coughs when something touches her throat, occasionally has a runny nose when she cries, her temperature is fine, occasionally elevated by 0.2-0.3 degrees (normally 36.5 degrees, but recently, it occasionally measures a bit higher than ours, probably not exceeding 37.3 degrees).Should I give my baby medicine? How should I take care of her? Thank you
Doctor's answer:
It's likely that the sore throat is caused by tonsillitis. When inflammation is severe, it's best to undergo anti-inflammatory treatment, such as lozenges like Huasuping. For more serious cases, intravenous anti-inflammatory treatment may be necessary. After recovery, it's important to maintain treatment for a certain period to prevent recurrence. The more frequently it occurs, the more prone to chronic issues it becomes. It's essential to avoid speaking too much during recovery and take precautions against catching a cold. I strongly recommend avoiding spicy foods. The key is to drink plenty of water regularly. You can also drink tea made with honeysuckle flowers, which is crucial for maintaining health and preventing flare-ups. This is the most important aspect.
