Patient's question:
6-year-old baby has yellow, thick nasal mucus and excessive eye discharge that is stuck together. What medicine should they take?Previous treatment history and effectiveness: None
What kind of help is needed: What medicine should they take?
Doctor's answer:
If the child only has a runny nose without other symptoms, it is likely caused by a stomachache. If accompanied by symptoms like coughing or fever, then it is indeed a fever. Generally, for a runny nose with yellow mucus, cold medicine should be taken for wind-heat type conditions. It is best to take the child to the hospital for a trace element test to determine the type of fever and then prescribe medication accordingly. Pay attention to giving the child more water and fruits regularly.
