Is it wind-cold or wind-heat? What medicine should I take?

Doctor's answer:

I speculate that the severity of children's colds varies greatly. In mild cases, symptoms may include just clear nasal discharge, nasal congestion, chills, or accompanied by tearing, slight cough, and discomfort in the throat. Generally, it can heal on its own within 3 to 4 days. Take medication on time. Most cases are caused by viruses, and antibiotics are ineffective. Especially in the early stages of viral infection, antibiotics not only fail to help but can also harm the body, leading to dysbiosis of the microbiota and favoring the adaptation of bacteria, thereby alleviating the condition.
