Question
My baby is 33 months old. They were hospitalized for bronchitis pneumonia over a month ago. Now, they occasionally have hiccups, about three or four times a day, no runny nose, and cough two or three times. Do we need to go to the hospital for a detailed check-up?
Answer
Occasional coughing or chills may be the body’s response to external stimuli. If coughing is accompanied by chills and runny nose but no fever, there may be an upper respiratory tract infection. It is recommended to take children’s fever-reducing medicine and pediatric cough syrup for treatment, and closely monitor any changes in the condition.
