Patient's question:
Baby is 9 weeks old and has been in poor spirits recently. Then it was found out that the baby is sick. Please ask: How is it best to treat baby's cold and cough?Doctor's answer:
The main symptoms of the baby are in the nose, with nasal discharge causing throat irritation leading to coughing. Due to symptoms like nasal discharge and chills, the nasolacrimal duct is prone to blockage, causing eye discharge to reappear. Gently massage the nose bridge and the inner corners of the eyes. Offer some warm water (breastfeeding babies can nurse frequently), and carefully observe for 2 days. If the condition persists and worsens without improvement, oral medication can be administered. Breastfeeding can replace water in this case, and you can also feed the baby some thin rice porridge frequently.
