What should I do if my baby occasionally coughs and has a slightly red throat?

Patient's question:

The baby occasionally coughs, has a slightly red throat, had a low fever of 39.3 degrees last night, and took two doses of ibuprofen. Should they take some anti-inflammatory medication? It's said that ribavirin isn't very good, can they take Pudilan? The baby is 2 years and 7 months old.

Doctor's answer:

Based on your description of your child's condition, the child has a fever with a temperature below 38.5 degrees Celsius, and they need to take ibuprofen granules. If the temperature is below 38.5 degrees Celsius, physical cooling can be done. My suggestion is that you can take heat-clearing and detoxifying medications, such as Lanqin oral liquid or Pudilan oral liquid. These are traditional Chinese medicines and have a good effect. The above suggestions are for the problem of "the baby occasionally coughs and has a slightly red throat." I hope it helps you, and wish you good health!
