What should I do if a newborn baby has phlegm in their throat?

Patient's question:

No

Doctor's answer:

Hello, your baby's cough with phlegm is likely a symptom of bronchitis caused by a cold. You can use children's cough syrup, children's lung heat cough and asthma oral liquid, combined with antibiotics such as azithromycin or amoxicillin for treatment. You can also give your baby some rock sugar pear juice or stewed pear with Fritillaria cirrhosa in daily life, which is also effective in relieving cough and phlegm. Make sure to drink plenty of water, keep warm, and avoid catching a cold.
