Question
A 13-month-old baby is coughing throughout the day and night, with a flushed face, and no other symptoms. Have they received any treatment, and what was the effect? What kind of assistance is needed?
Answer
Based on your description, the baby may be suffering from inflammation of the trachea due to a cold, leading to coughing. It is recommended to give the baby some cough medicine, such as ‘Children’s Mahuang Qingfei Tablets’ or other appropriate cough remedies. At the same time, ensure the baby stays warm, avoid eating cold or irritating foods, drink plenty of warm water, stay warm when going out, reduce exposure to cold air, and this should help alleviate the cough symptoms.
