Question
My four-month-old baby frequently coughs after drinking milk and rice porridge, and this has been going on for a while. Besides sweating on the palms of his hands and soles of his feet, he often tosses and turns during his afternoon nap. What could be the cause, and what treatments are available?
Answer
The baby frequently coughs after drinking milk and rice porridge, and this has been ongoing for some time. Along with sweating on the palms of his hands and soles of his feet, he often tosses and turns during his afternoon nap. This is a sign of poor digestion and calcium deficiency. It is recommended to give the baby probiotics for five days to adjust absorption function and stabilize absorption issues. If there is no improvement after five days, it is advisable to consult a doctor.
