What should I do if a four-year-old child has a slightly hoarse voice and a runny nose?

Patient's question:

Four-year-old child, voice a bit hoarse, slight cough, runny nose, no fever

Doctor's answer:

In this case for children, it is generally considered to be caused by a stomachache or a viral infection. First, do not give the baby indiscriminately antibiotics. Drinking more water and taking oral pediatric cold medicine granules and ribavirin granules should be sufficient. More than 90% of cases are caused by viral infections. Boil some pear water for the baby to cool down. In these next few days, adopt a small amount of food multiple times a day with light and easy-to-digest diet. The above is advice for this issue. It is hoped that it will be helpful to you. Wishing you a speedy recovery!
