Question

The two-and-a-half-year-old baby has an uncomfortable throat, with a cough that sounds like a dog’s bark, and a bit of wheezing. When the coughing is severe, they want to vomit. They have already received intravenous treatment at the hospital, using cephalosporins and Xianping. Could you please tell me what might have caused this?

Answer

Hello, based on the description, the baby may have tonsillitis. It is recommended to take fire-clearing medicine or undergo intravenous treatment for inflammation. It is very important to avoid eating spicy and irritating foods, and drinking plenty of water can help improve the symptoms. Additionally, parents should pay attention to the baby’s balanced diet and avoid picky eating or fussy eating habits. If the baby is diagnosed with tonsillitis, parents should cooperate with the doctor to start treatment immediately and pay attention to the baby’s dietary stress reduction and hygiene habits.
