Doctor's answer:

Hello, based on the information you provided, it is recommended that your child visit the hospital for evaluation.
The current condition of your child requires a bone marrow puncture to rule out the possibility of myeloproliferative disorders caused by a cold. At this stage, it is necessary to continue treatment and use aspirin for anticoagulation.
There are many causes of respiratory diseases in children. If your child is confirmed to have a respiratory system condition, parents need to cooperate with the doctor for immediate treatment, including gastric decompression, and develop good hygiene habits. Your child should maintain a balanced diet and avoid stimulating and cold foods.
