Patient's question:
A three-and-a-half-month-old baby, who had been coughing occasionally a few days ago, started having trouble sleeping last night. They've been experiencing bloating and gas, and yesterday, the coughing became worse with every effort, making it unclear whether it's due to a cold or drool. They haven't coughed much during the day.Doctor's answer:
It may be caused by acid reflux. Based on your description, when feeding the baby, pay attention to hygiene, always keep the nipple clean, and ensure hand hygiene after changing the baby's diaper. Since the baby's stool is affected by the mother's milk, the mother should also pay attention to a balanced diet, eat properly, and avoid fried and junk foods. The diet should be regular, and cold drinks should be consumed less. You can take one pack of triple live bacteria bifidus granules, twice a day, 30 minutes after feeding, with warm water.
