What should I do if I have pneumonia and also catch a cold?

Patient's question:

I don't know what's going on, but my child has been misbehaving lately and crying non-stop. Even the hospital check-up didn't help. What should I do if they have pneumonia and also catch a cold?

Doctor's answer:

Hello, your three-month-old baby has recovered from pneumonia. The second cold is likely due to a problem with their constitution or poor recovery. It is recommended to use pediatric cold medicine promptly and take good care of them, ensuring proper warmth and daily care. The baby probably caught a cold due to feeling cold. You can try giving them Ganlike and Magang Granules. Additionally, it is advisable to get a blood test done. If the blood test results are high, antibiotic treatment may be necessary. Azithromycin works well in such cases. Make sure the baby drinks plenty of fluids. If they have a fever, you can use ibuprofen suspension for oral administration. Wishing your baby a speedy recovery.
