Patient's question:
My baby is now eight weeks old. A few days ago, there were three small red spots on his throat. Now he has started coughing, but he doesn't have a fever. What illness could this be?Doctor's answer:
Based on your description, it is speculated that the cold is caused by a respiratory infection. In this case, it is important not to delay treatment. It is recommended to visit the hospital promptly for a blood test to check the severity of the inflammation and identify the cause before starting treatment. You can take herbal decoctions that clear heat and detoxify, as well as those that treat coughing. In necessary cases, intravenous treatment may be required. Drink plenty of water, eat light and easily digestible foods, and pay close attention to preventing your child from catching a cold.
