Patient's question:
The child has just been born for a few days, the child keeps coughing, the fever doesn't go down, and it's also running a nose, what to do?Doctor's answer:
This may be an upper respiratory infection caused by bacteria or viruses entering the body after a child has a cold. If the temperature is not above 38.5 degrees, oral fever-reducing medication may not be necessary. Physical cooling methods can be used, such as wiping the body with warm water or alcohol. Drinking more warm water is also recommended. If the fever exceeds 38.5 degrees, you can choose Tylenol or Phenylephrine Suspension. Additionally, you can also choose Antiviral Oral Liquid, Haowa Cold Relief Granules, and Children's Cough Syrup, among others. Specific medications should be used under the guidance of a doctor.
