What should I do if my child has difficulty breathing while sleeping?

Patient's question:

My baby is 50 days old. Today, when we changed his diaper, he cried very hard. Then, I noticed that now, when he sleeps, his breathing is not normal. It seems like an adult who is angry, making a groaning sound while breathing, then sniffling, and this cycle repeats. It has been half a day already, and he seems like he can't catch his breath.
Dear expert, what could be the reason for this? Is the problem serious? What should we do now? (Note) He had pneumonia a few weeks ago, but it has now recovered. However, he still has a mild cold. Could this be affecting him? Please answer us, and thank you very much—we are grateful to you for the rest of our lives.

Doctor's answer:

??????Hello, according to what you said, it is a symptom of tonsillitis. This condition can be addressed during the recovery period to promote the restoration of the tonsils. During the recovery period, you can use Chinese herbal medicine chrysanthemum, honeysuckle, and licorice in appropriate amounts to brew water and drink for regulation.
