Question
Can a baby with a cough and phlegm drink fresh bamboo decoction for a week?
Answer
If a child has a cold with cough and phlegm for a week, consider giving them pediatric paracetamol and chlorpheniramine granules for treatment, along with plenty of water and attention to staying warm. If symptoms worsen, intravenous therapy may be necessary. Parents should avoid letting their child be picky about food and maintain good eating habits, which are important for respiratory health.
