Patient's question:
The child was born a few days ago and recently doesn't know why they keep scratching their ears. Please advise what the 6-year-old child should eat if their lymph nodes are inflamed in the neck.Doctor's answer:
Your child may have a cold if they are only experiencing a runny nose, which could be caused by a cold. If your baby has a stuffy nose but no other symptoms, you should take them to an ear, nose, and throat specialist for a nasal examination. Make sure your baby drinks more water, as sufficient hydration can thin nasal secretions, making them easier to clean. Encourage your baby to eat more fruits and juices rich in vitamin C. Try to let your baby sleep more and reduce outdoor activities appropriately to avoid overexerting them.
