Question
Why has my child been sick for a month now? After being diagnosed with a cold and prescribed antibiotics, they start to run a nose again after stopping the medication. Seven days later, it’s hand, foot, and mouth disease, and after a couple of weeks, it stops and they start coughing, running a nose, and having a blocked nose. Do I need to use antibiotics every day?
Answer
A runny nose in babies is a symptom of nasal inflammation, commonly seen in infections caused by viruses or bacteria. It often presents with symptoms such as bilateral or unilateral nasal congestion and runny nose. It is recommended to treat with ribavirin for antiviral therapy and pediatric paracetamol yellow amine granules, along with plenty of water. This is the suggestion for the question ‘Do I need to take antibiotics every day?’ I hope this helps and wish you health!
