Question

What should I do if my 11-month-old baby has a persistent cough and keeps getting fever? (Male)

Answer

It might be advisable to have a blood test done as the condition hasn’t been fully cured. Some babies are prone to recurrent respiratory infections. Generally, as the child grows older, their immune system strengthens and the condition improves. It’s recommended that caregivers avoid touching the baby when they have a cold and ensure the room is well-ventilated. Different causes lead to different symptoms, so patients should seek systematic and standardized examinations at a regular three-level A hospital as soon as possible to receive targeted treatment and recover quickly.
