Question

A six-week-old baby is experiencing cough symptoms, and the parents want to know how to treat them.

Answer

Under the guidance of a doctor, select appropriate medication based on the baby’s specific symptoms, such as using lung-clearing syrup which may have a better effect. At the same time, attention should be paid to keeping warm and encouraging the baby to drink plenty of water. Parents should maintain a calm attitude, ensure the baby has enough rest, and keep the diet light, avoiding greasy and spicy foods, which are beneficial for the baby’s recovery.
