Doctor's answer:

For those with a cold, the child's immunity is relatively low during the cold period. Vaccines contain inactivated viruses, and a weakened immune system can lead to a recurrence of the virus. Currently, the child needs an early blood test and medication for antiviral treatment. Vaccination should only be administered after the cold is cured. Drinking warm water can promote early recovery.
In daily life, it's important to maintain a light diet and avoid greasy, spicy, or hard-to-digest foods. Drinking more water is beneficial, and honey water can also be consumed. Pay attention to wearing appropriate clothing, ensuring good indoor air circulation, and maintaining a reasonable schedule. Avoid staying up late and take appropriate supplements of vitamin C to enhance immunity.
