Patient's question:
These days, my boss said I'm not in good spirits, which has affected 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. Is it helpful for babies with colds to drink brown sugar water?Doctor's answer:
Hello, I suggest you give your baby plain boiled water to drink, as brown sugar is considered a "hot" food that can cause internal heat and inflammation. You can drink it in moderation and don't need to overdo it. If your baby has a runny nose, it's best to maintain indoor humidity. In the summer, when it's hot and air conditioning makes the air dry, you can use a humidifier or place a basin of water inside the room. Too cold or too hot temperatures can easily make your baby have a runny nose. I recommend that mothers try to keep the room temperature between 25°C and 27°C for maximum comfort.
