A one-month-old baby has a cold and is running a nose. What can be done?

Patient's question:

I am a 61-year-old woman. Recently, I noticed that my child is behaving strangely. After a check-up, it turned out that they have fallen ill. I would like to ask: What can be done if a one-month-old baby catches a cold and has a runny nose?

Doctor's answer:

Your child has a cold with symptoms of a runny nose and nasal congestion. It is recommended to take the child to the hospital for a thorough examination to identify the cause and then receive appropriate treatment, which is usually medication-based. Daily care for the child should be paid attention to, and preventive measures against colds should be taken to avoid getting cold. Additionally, the patient needs to maintain a balanced diet, follow a regular sleep schedule, and regulate physical and mental health. In daily life, it is important to keep a positive mood, eat more light, soft, and liquid foods, drink plenty of water, and consume more vegetables and fruits.
