Question

Hello doctor, my child is a one and a half-year-old boy, and he has been coughing recently. Can a 1.5-year-old baby with a cough eat dragon fruit?

Answer

Hello, dragon fruit can help prevent dry and hot coughs in a 1.5-year-old baby and also has the benefit of protecting the stomach. The baby can eat dragon fruit when coughing, but it is important to avoid consuming other sweets, such as sugar, as this may worsen the coughing condition. Coughs can be caused by bronchitis or pneumonia, so it is recommended that parents take their child to the hospital for a detailed examination and treatment according to the symptoms. At the same time, make sure to give the child plenty of water.
