Patient's question:
The baby is 10 months old and not in good spirits. I feel that the baby is sick. Please ask: What are the effects of a cold on the baby?Doctor's answer:
Usually caused by viral infection of the upper respiratory tract, it may be followed by bacterial infection later on. Colds generally improve within a week. Symptomatic relief can be achieved using decongestants. Rest and staying warm are important. Drink plenty of water. Oral Gentian Root Granules can be used. Regular moderate exercise is recommended. Avoid psychological stress and maintain a cheerful mood. Pay attention to getting enough rest during this period, and maintain a light diet, avoiding greasy and spicy foods, which are beneficial for both you and the baby.
