How to deal with a three-month-old baby with severe coughing?

Patient's question:

More than twenty days into it, she started coughing. Over thirty days, the doctor examined her and said it was nothing, just that the baby was a bit chubby and occasional coughing was normal. But now it's very serious—she coughs four or five times in a row, sometimes even coughing up vomit.

Doctor's answer:

The cough of the child may be caused by excessive sweating and repeated catching colds, or it could be due to allergic cough. Suggestions:
1. If there is sweat, it must be wiped dry promptly.
2. You can try soaking in ginger water for a period of time, which may help dispel cold and relieve symptoms.
3. If, in addition to symptoms like a runny nose and cough, there is a fever, you can use drugs like bisopropyl phenylamine pseudoephedrine dispersible tablets or wind-cold fever granules to alleviate the fever. Antihistamines may also be used if necessary for treatment.
