Patient's question:
The child was born only a few days ago. Recently, for some reason, they keep scratching their ears. I wonder what could be the reason for the baby's hands and feet being hot and having a runny nose?Doctor's answer:
Considering the possibility of upper respiratory tract infection is relatively high, symptoms such as cough, sputum production, fever, and runny nose may appear after an upper respiratory tract infection. It is recommended that if the temperature is not too high, oral medication can be taken. However, if the temperature is high, it is still advisable to receive intravenous treatment. The child's symptoms, which are caused by a runny nose after a cold, should be treated promptly with oral medication, such as cefadroxil, chlorpheniramine, and vitamin C.
