Can a 3-month-old baby with a stuffy nose and cough use a fan?

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 always have trouble sleeping at night, and sometimes I feel anxious and uncomfortable. If it gets worse, I'm worried it will affect my health and work. By the way, can a 3-month-old baby with a stuffy nose and cough use a fan?

Doctor's answer:

Hello, according to your description, it is generally a slight cold caused by the baby catching a cold. You can give the baby more water and some cold medicine granules for children. It usually takes about a week to recover. It may be caused by roseola, and local use of calamine lotion is needed. Oral antihistamines, vitamins, and antibiotics should also be taken for treatment. Avoid contact with any substances that may cause allergies. Avoid spicy, alcoholic, and other irritating foods. If the effect is not good, go to the hospital for an allergen test and desensitization treatment.
