How to deal with a 4-month-old baby's hoarse throat?

Patient's question:

For more than four months, the male baby discovered on the 23rd that his throat had become hoarse! The symptoms are a cold with coughing and hoarseness, and he loves crying. Today, his throat is particularly hoarse, very severe, as if he can't produce any sound at all. What should we do?

Doctor's answer:

I'm glad to help you with your question. A four-month-old child with a cold, crying, etc., causing hoarseness of the throat likely has a higher possibility of having pediatric laryngitis. In this case, it is recommended to take the child to the hospital for atomization inhalation treatment. It is necessary to conduct a systematic examination of the throat and check the temperature changes. Usually, persistent hoarseness of the throat should be accompanied by a fever, and it is necessary to promptly reduce the fever and provide symptomatic treatment.
