Question
The child is eight months old and coughs during the afternoon nap at night, and also coughs occasionally during the day. It’s been half a month now, and medication has been taken but there’s no improvement. What could be the cause? Thank you.
Answer
The possible cause could be indigestion in the stomach. It is recommended to give the child medication to aid digestion and avoid forcing feeding when the child does not want to eat. Allow the child’s gastrointestinal tract to rest. You can try giving the child a cooked pear. May the child recover soon and have a healthy body and life.
