Question

A two-month-old baby has been experiencing symptoms of pharyngitis for nearly two months, and although medication has been taken intermittently, there has been no improvement. Currently, the tonsils are inflamed, the cough is severe, mucus is difficult to cough up, and the body temperature measures at 37.10 degrees. How should one handle the baby’s cough and runny nose issues?

Answer

This condition may be caused by pediatric upper respiratory infection and requires active treatment. Without medication, the condition may worsen, so medication treatment is necessary. In addition to medication for the tonsillitis, parents should also pay attention to the baby’s diet, maintaining light and non-spicy foods. It is also recommended to choose a professional hospital for diagnosis and treatment to achieve better therapeutic effects.
