Patient's question:
Interrupted, doctor, I have a question to consult you. What should I do if my 2.5-year-old child has a cold and coughs? My baby got a cold last night, and now he keeps coughing. I went to the pharmacy to buy children's cold medicine, but none of them seem to work. What should I do?Doctor's answer:
It is recommended that you take your child to the pediatric department for a check-up, have a blood test done, and get a clear diagnosis. Then, you can receive treatment based on the symptoms. When taking care of your child, parents must be patient. If you notice any discomfort in your child, it is important to take them to the hospital for a thorough examination. During illness, it is absolutely crucial not to give your child medication blindly to avoid delaying their treatment.
