Question
Based on the situation you described, how should parents massage their baby’s nose and cough during a cold?
Answer
According to your description, parents can gently rub the sides of the baby’s nostrils with their fingers to promote blood circulation and maintain clear breathing, which can help alleviate the runny nose caused by the cold. Additionally, parents can gently massage the soles of the baby’s feet to adjust Qi and blood, and relieve coughing. Patients should develop good living habits, maintain regular sleep schedules, quit smoking and drinking, and increase daily exercise to boost immunity, avoiding recurrence of the illness.
