Question

What should I do if my child has a cold and is also running a nose?

Answer

If your child has a cold with symptoms of runny nose and nasal congestion, it is recommended to take them to the hospital for a thorough examination to determine the cause and receive appropriate treatment. Medications are usually available for treatment. In daily care, pay special attention to protecting your child, particularly ensuring proper warmth to prevent catching a cold. Additionally, patients should maintain a balanced diet, regular sleep patterns, and adjust their physical and mental health. In daily life, it’s important to maintain a positive mood, consume light and soft foods, increase fluid intake, and eat more vegetables and fruits.
