Can soaking feet in ginger water treat children's cough?

Patient's question:

I used ginger water to bathe my daughter, to relieve her infant cough. I put too much ginger in, and she broke out in many hives on her body. How can I solve this?

Doctor's answer:

Your child is only one year old, and we suggest you should not blindly use ginger, as it has a warm and hot property. It would be surprising if your child were not coughing. Based on your description, we recommend that you take your child to the pediatric department of a hospital as soon as possible for a detailed and thorough examination to carefully observe whether the lump on their body is a problem, so that targeted treatment can be implemented in addition to treating the child's cough. In addition to symptomatic treatment for the child's cough, the patient should also pay attention to nursing aspects, such as proper diet and maintaining a cheerful mood. At the same time, the patient should also pay attention to choosing a reputable hospital for treatment to obtain good therapeutic effects.
