If the baby has internal heat, you can give them a little bit of light salt water in the morning, massage the sole of their feet and rub their footpads at night, and drink more warm water. If it's due to cold, you can give the child some ginger and brown sugar water, also soak their feet in hot water at night, and drink more warm water, avoiding cold and cooling foods. For coughing, you can use hawthorn, dried tangerine peel, and a very small amount of licorice to boil water. For clear nasal discharge, add ginger slices, or you can also use hawthorn, licorice, and radish water, and drink more warm water. At the same time, you can also boil water with white radish, pears, and rock sugar to drink. It can moisten the lungs and clear heat.
