Patient's question:
The baby is about to be four months old. There is some nasal congestion, and there has been phlegm for a month. The vaccination has not been given for a month. Can this situation receive the vaccination? The nose is a bit stuffy when waking up in the morning, and the phlegm has been there without coughing or runny nose. Treatment history and effectiveness: none. What help is desired: just asking if the vaccination can be given and how to reduce phlegm and nasal congestion.Doctor's answer:
The baby's condition shows symptoms of a cold, so anesthesia shots are not recommended. It's better to wait until the baby recovers before getting vaccinated. For the baby's cough and stuffy nose, it's suggested to give the baby Ambroxol oral solution to help clear the mucus. If the condition doesn't improve after taking the medicine, it's recommended to bring the baby back for a follow-up visit. The above advice is for the question "My baby is about to turn 4 months old and has had a stuffy nose and cough for a month—what's going on?" and is hoped to be helpful. Wishing you good health!
