Question
The newborn started to have a slight cough yesterday, and it seems to have worsened today. The baby is normal when not coughing, but the sound is louder when coughing. What should I do?
Answer
It is recommended to give the baby Children’s 999 Cold Granules and Children’s Amoxicillin for symptomatic anti-inflammatory medication, and to provide Lung Clearing and Lung Cooling Sweet Grapes syrup. At the same time, the baby should drink more warm water and eat more fruits and vegetables, and avoid greasy fried foods. If the baby develops a fever, especially if the body temperature is higher than 38.5 degrees Celsius, it should be taken to the hospital for a follow-up examination immediately.
