Patient's question:
Baby is three and a half months old. Woke up early this morning and found her throat was hoarse. It might be a slight cold, but she's not coughing, just hoarse. What medicine should I give her? Or what kind of dietary therapy should I use?Doctor's answer:
It is recommended that your baby pay attention to rest, speak less, and avoid loud crying. Drink more cooling green vegetable juices and fruit juices, such as pear juice. Make sure to maintain air humidity at home by frequently mopping the floors with a damp mop or using a humidifier. During pharyngitis, the symptoms may also include a hoarse throat. If your baby has a hoarse throat accompanied by fever, cough, or difficulty breathing, it is necessary for a doctor to diagnose the condition. Additionally, dry air may also contribute to this. Do you usually drink enough water and consume fruits, especially those that help reduce heat? If your baby drinks milk, it is advisable to increase the proportion of water when mixing the milk to avoid exacerbating the situation.
