Patient's question:
What is the reason for a cold, cough, runny nose, and elevated white blood cells? The cough is a bit severe.Doctor's answer:
According to your description, the 3-month-old child has again developed a fever accompanied by coughing, which is considered to be asthma bronchitis or pneumonia. The elevated white blood cell count suggests a bacterial infection. It is recommended to go to the hospital pediatric department for follow-up treatment, including taking cefixime granules, Dingchuan oral pediatric Shai Gui Tui Re granules, etc. At the same time, use budesonide for inhalation treatment. If the body temperature is below 38.5, temporarily take ibuprofen for fever reduction. Wishing the patient a speedy recovery!
