Question
The 2-year-old baby is coughing but has no runny nose. During naps, there is nasal sound and breathing discomfort. The baby coughs both at night and during the day. Is it possible that the baby has pneumonia?
Answer
Based on your description, the baby has symptoms of nasal congestion, coughing, and breathing difficulties. It is recommended to take the baby to the hospital for a re-examination promptly. Since the baby is young, the condition may change rapidly, so early diagnosis and ruling out pneumonia are very important. In terms of diet, it is advisable to avoid overly greasy foods and to consume more vitamin-rich and high-quality protein foods.
