Patient's question:
Lately, my boss has said that I'm not in good spirits and it's affecting my work performance. Actually, I don't want to, either. I often can't sleep at night and sometimes feel anxious and uncomfortable. If it gets worse, I'm worried it will affect my health and work. By the way, how should I treat a cold for a five-month-old baby?Doctor's answer:
Children with nasal congestion, runny nose, sneezing, and coughing are all symptoms of respiratory infections. Clear nasal discharge is generally most commonly associated with viral infections. Most viral infections are self-limiting, and even without medication, they can usually heal within about 7 days. There are many factors that can affect a child's respiratory system. If a child is diagnosed with a respiratory condition, parents need to cooperate with the doctor to start treatment immediately, assist with gastric decompression, and develop good hygiene habits. Parents should pay attention not to let their children develop picky eating habits and ensure a balanced diet.
