Question
How to solve the cough problem of a 6-month-old baby?
Answer
A baby’s cough can be caused by a cold, often accompanied by coughing, excessive phlegm, and fever. If the body temperature exceeds 37 degrees Celsius, it is important to pay attention to the fever and provide appropriate treatment, such as using children’s paracetamol and chlorpheniramine granules, drinking plenty of water, and ensuring adequate warmth. If the condition does not improve, intravenous treatment may be required. Additionally, if diagnosed with a respiratory system disease, immediate treatment should be initiated, along with gastrointestinal pressure reduction and good hygiene habits. The baby’s diet should be reasonable, avoiding irritating and cold foods.
