Question
With the hot weather recently, our home often has the air conditioner running, which has led to our baby catching a cold and having a yellow nasal discharge. What should we do?
Answer
It is recommended to give the baby some cooling medication, ensure they drink plenty of water, and expose them to sunlight. For excessive eye discharge, you can use an anti-inflammatory eye drop by gently squeezing the liquid onto the eyelid, then asking the baby to open and close their eyes to allow the medication to enter the eye. Patients should develop a regular lifestyle, persist with treatment, and maintain a light diet, engage in aerobic exercise, and this will enhance their immune system and reduce the risk of illness.
