A five-month-old baby has a fever of 37.8°C and a runny nose. What should I do?

Patient's question:

No

Doctor's answer:

Hello, if a child has a fever and cough, it is often considered to be due to an upper respiratory infection. This is usually triggered by a bacterial or viral infection after catching a cold, leading to respiratory inflammation and symptoms such as fever, cough, and excessive phlegm. Treatment with pediatric cough and phlegm granules or amoxicillin granules can be effective. For fever, you can take appropriate doses of Panadol oral liquid.
