Noticed that the child is a bit stuffy nose, didn't pay much attention at that time. Later, it started to run a nose and hiccup. Then realized it was a fever. Currently, the timing hasn't drunk medicine or taken medicine. Because the child is still young, not daring to give him medicine randomly. Moreover, also don't know what medicine is good. Concerning what kind of help: What medicine is good for children's cold? Need to pay attention to what issues?

Doctor's answer:

Fever with a runny nose is best not to use any cold medicine in the early stage, because there is no medicine that does not have side effects. Therefore, it is recommended to take a large amount of vitamin C in the early stage of fever, which can greatly reduce the resistance and self-healing ability in our body, and it is usually self-healed without medication. If it is in the middle or late stage of fever, it is not very effective. The best way is to use a thumb-thick scallion, only the white part and the scallion must be cut into 5 segments of an inch long, put them in a pot with 3 bowls of water and boil them into 1 bowl! It can be taken for 2-3 days.
