Question

After the snowfall these past few days, the baby caught a cold due to the chill, with sneezing and clear nasal discharge. How can one expel the cold in babies with cold?

Answer

Treating a cold caused by catching a chill requires expelling the coldness as quickly as possible for the illness to heal properly. Vegetables like scallions, ginger, and garlic are good at expelling coldness and can be cooked and eaten. Additionally, it’s important to clear the body of the cold virus by drinking plenty of plain water to minimize damage to the body. Medications for the cold should be used under a doctor’s guidance to ensure effective treatment tailored to the symptoms. In daily life, avoid overexertion, get plenty of rest, keep warm, and help alleviate the condition to recover health as quickly as possible.
