Question

My baby is 4 months old, and recently, as the weather has turned autumn and become particularly dry, everyone can feel it. Since that dry day, the baby has been sneezing a lot. Can dry weather cause sneezing?

Answer

Frequent sneezing in a 4-month-old baby may be related to wind-cold flu, which is primarily caused by rhinovirus-induced inflammation of the nasopharynx, presenting with symptoms such as nasal heat, congestion, runny nose, and cough. It is recommended that parents seek medical attention promptly for further examination and treatment.
