Question
Why does a 10-month-old baby develop coughing and sneezing symptoms after catching a cold at night?
Answer
A 10-month-old baby may develop coughing and sneezing symptoms after catching a cold at night due to respiratory tract infection caused by the cold. This infection could be related to bronchitis, pharyngitis, or mycoplasma infection, which requires confirmation through examination and treatment tailored to the cause. The doctor recommends taking oral azithromycin and Kekeximin for symptomatic relief of cough and to promote early recovery. During the treatment process, it may be necessary to cooperate with gastrointestinal decompression and develop good hygiene habits. Parents should also pay attention to their baby’s balanced diet and avoid picky eating.
