Question
My baby is 14 weeks old and suddenly fell ill, feeling uncomfortable. What should I pay attention to in my baby’s diet when they have a cold and fever?
Answer
If your baby has a cold and fever, here are some points to keep in mind:
- If there is no improvement after 2 or 3 days, it is recommended to go to the hospital for a follow-up visit and receive targeted treatment based on the current condition.
- Your baby may have a cough, which could be due to an upper respiratory infection, bronchitis, or pneumonia. It is important to first make a clear diagnosis, and you can try giving them ambroxol oral solution to see if it has any effect. If the child’s cough is severe, please go to the hospital for a follow-up visit promptly.
- Avoid any psychological pressure, maintain a cheerful mood, and ensure adequate rest.
- In terms of diet, keep it light and avoid greasy and spicy foods, which are beneficial for both the baby and the mother. Wishing your baby a speedy recovery!
