Patient's question:
My baby is a bit hiccuping and sneezing, occasionally coughing at night, but not coughing during the day. How should I give medicine? I haven't seen a doctor yet. A while ago, it was the same, and then it expanded into pneumonia. I'm so worried. Thank you.Doctor's answer:
From the symptoms you described, it is highly likely that the child is suffering from acute upper respiratory tract infection, most of which are caused by viral infections. The treatment is primarily symptomatic, with attention to nursing care. For cough, you can take Qingfei Syrup. For hiccups and runny nose, you can use physiological saline nasal spray. It is important to closely monitor the child's temperature, as they have a history of pneumonia. If the child has a fever, it is necessary to take them to the hospital for a thorough examination.
