Patient's question:
My baby is a premature child, and I was very worried about the child's condition from the beginning. Recently, the child has been experiencing a series of symptoms, and I am also very worried, afraid that the child's condition will worsen. Is it a cold if a newborn has yellow nasal mucus?Doctor's answer:
You can use a cotton swab to clean the baby. If the nasal mucus is dry, you can first drip a drop of warm water to moisten it, wait until the nasal mucus is soaked, and then use the cotton swab to clean it. If the baby is uncooperative, you can clean it while the baby is sleeping.Hello, according to your description, it is likely caused by enteritis. You can have the baby's stool tested for routine examination. Anti-inflammatory treatment can be given, such as oral cefixime granules for suspension and Smecta. Drink more water, and the baby will recover gradually. Additionally, maintain hygiene in the anal area by rinsing with warm water to avoid the occurrence of eczema.
