Children with yellow nasal discharge, what medicine should they take?

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. Could you please tell me what medicine to take for yellow nasal discharge?

Doctor's answer:

According to the symptoms you mentioned, it is considered to be caused by wind-heat invading the lung, and the treatment should focus on dispelling wind and clearing heat. You can take Yin Qiao Powder (modified) and maintain a light diet, avoiding spicy and irritating foods.
Generally, a temperature below 38°C does not require fever-reducing medication. Physical cooling methods such as alcohol rubs and warm water washes on the face and forehead can be used. If the temperature exceeds 38°C, you can take ibuprofen suspension or naproxen.
