How to deal with dry cough in two-month-old babies

Patient's question:

I don't know what's going on, but my child has been misbehaving and crying non-stop recently. Even the hospital check-up didn't help. How should I deal with a two-month-old baby's dry cough?

Doctor's answer:

Hello, you can use the hot drink method to relieve cough. Drinking more warm beverages can make the baby's mucus thinner, relieve the tension of the respiratory tract mucosa, and promote the expectoration of phlegm. It is best for the baby to drink warm water, warm milk, rice soup, etc. You can also give the baby fresh juice. The juice should be chosen to be less irritating, such as apple juice and pear juice, and it is not advisable to drink citrus juice such as orange juice and grapefruit juice.
