Doctor's answer:

The condition of your child exhibits typical symptoms of a cold, which generally include coughing with phlegm, runny nose, and fever. Your child currently has a fever. Regarding your child's condition, I recommend first focusing on rest, consuming light, warm, and easily digestible foods, and drinking plenty of fluids, which can help reduce fever. It is advisable for your child to actively take Xiao'er An Fen Huang Nanning Granules, Xinbolin Granules, and Amoxicillin Granules for treatment, as they are highly effective.
