Is a 5-year-old child with a stuffy nose but no runny nose suffering from a cold?

Patient's question:

No

Doctor's answer:

The condition of your child's stuffy nose should be considered a symptom of a cold. If there are no other discomforting symptoms, there is no need to worry too much. For a baby in this situation, it is important to keep warm, drink more water appropriately, and it may not necessarily require medication. During this period, pay attention to rest and maintain a light diet for proper regulation.
