Question
Hello doctor, my son is four years old and has been coughing for some time now. What should I do if he has a slight cough?
Answer
If the baby only occasionally coughs, there’s no need to worry too much. It’s recommended to drink plenty of water and pay attention to any changes in the condition. If the coughing becomes frequent or is accompanied by a fever, it could be due to a cold, bronchitis, or pneumonia, and it is advisable to seek medical attention promptly. According to the doctor’s guidance, get a diagnosis and treatment. In daily life, pay attention to balanced diet, supplement nutrition, and keep warm to avoid catching a cold.
