Coughing and runny nose for six days, what should I do?

Patient's question:

Hello! I have had a cough and runny nose for six days and have been taking Xin Kangtaike for five days. My condition has improved somewhat, but it hasn't fully recovered. In five days, I will be in the mother-baby room (currently the baby is in the NICU due to preterm birth). I need to recover within five days. Is there any method? I don't have a fever or a headache.

Doctor's answer:

I'm glad to explain for you. According to your description, a clear nose with cough is a typical case of influenza. It is recommended to take timely symptomatic medication and antiviral oral liquid. Drinking ginger and brown sugar water is beneficial for a complete recovery from the illness. If you are in close contact with a baby, it is necessary to wear a mask for isolation to prevent cross-infection. The above are suggestions for this issue. I hope it helps you, and wish you a speedy recovery!
