What kind of medicine should I take for a runny nose?

Patient's question:

Children with a runny nose should take what kind of anti-inflammatory medicine? First question supplement: I took medicine for two days two days ago and, after reading your reply for help, I didn't take it anymore. Now I still have a bit of nasal congestion, and I can get better without medication. Thank you!

Doctor's answer:

Your child should have a cold. After your child catches a cold, it is important to get adequate rest, drink plenty of fluids, and provide a light diet. If your child primarily has clear nasal discharge, you can give them general children's cold granules, which can significantly improve symptoms. At the same time, you can also take traditional Chinese medicine antiviral preparations, such as Banlangen or Pudilan oral liquid. If your child develops fever or cough, it may indicate a bacterial infection, and antibiotics may be necessary if added treatment is required.
