Question
Should a baby with nasal congestion and cough be given medicine?
Answer
If a baby is experiencing symptoms of nasal congestion and cough, it’s important to take them to see a doctor immediately. Do not administer medication to the baby without a medical diagnosis. If the doctor confirms a cold or another illness, they will provide appropriate treatment recommendations based on the baby’s condition. Additionally, the mother should avoid consuming diuretic or laxative foods to prevent affecting the baby’s digestive system.
