Question

My child is three months old, and has been coughing for the past few days with red eyes and frequent sweating. I want to know what this might be?

Answer

It may be necessary to undergo chest X-rays, CT scans, bronchoscopy, and bronchial provocation tests, and may require oral antibiotics, steroids, cough suppressants, and expectorants for treatment. Additionally, it’s important to avoid spicy, cold, and other irritating foods in daily life and to strengthen physical fitness through exercise. If diagnosed with respiratory issues, parents should cooperate with the doctor’s treatment, reduce gastrointestinal pressure, and develop good hygiene habits. Parents should also pay attention to not allowing their child to picky-eat or have a biased diet and maintain a balanced diet.
