How to treat a baby's cold, cough, and runny nose

Patient's question:

The weather has been very hot recently, and the air conditioner has been running in the house. As a result, the baby accidentally caught a cold and has been constantly having a runny nose. I would like to know how to treat a baby's cold, cough, and runny nose.

Doctor's answer:

The symptoms you described are all caused by a cold. It is recommended to give the child cold medicine, such as symptomatic drugs, and pay attention to giving them more water and rest. Generally, it will improve quickly. If the symptoms do not subside, it is best to take the baby to the hospital for follow-up treatment.
During the treatment period, the patient needs to follow a balanced diet, maintain a regular routine, actively participate in physical exercise, regulate physical and mental health, and maintain personal hygiene to avoid bacterial invasion due to weakened immunity.
