Parents are worried about giving medicine to their one year old child who has a cold and cough, and are asking what to do.

Answer

For a 1 year old child with a cough caused by a wind-cold and cold due to exposure to cold, you can give wind-cold and cold medicines as well as medicines that clear the lungs and cool the blood to treat the cough. If you don’t want to give oral medication to your child, you can use pediatric acupuncture to dispel wind-cold, reduce fever, clear the lungs and cool the blood to effectively relieve the symptoms of wind-cold and cough caused by cold.
