Question

The baby has had a cold for three days and isn’t eating milk. The baby is crying and restless. How should I handle this?

Answer

Hello, your child may have caught a cold. In the early stages of the illness, you can give your child Shuanghuanglian or Banlangen to treat it. If the child has symptoms like runny nose, you can give them medication like Compound Paracetamol Granules for the common cold, along with symptomatic anti-inflammatory medication, and encourage them to drink plenty of water to soothe their throat pain. If the condition does not improve, antibiotic treatment may be necessary. When treating childhood diseases, parents should adopt the correct methods to help their children recover quickly and avoid affecting their growth and development. Therefore, when a child is sick, parents should act promptly to help them heal.
