Question
What to Do When a Baby Has a Runny Nose and Cough?
Answer
Based on your description, the baby may have an upper respiratory infection. If the cough and phlegm symptoms have improved after taking medication, it is recommended to continue the medication and closely monitor the baby. If the symptoms do not improve, it is advisable to take the baby to the hospital for a medical examination. At the same time, be sure to give the baby plenty of water, feed appropriately, and maintain clean, well-ventilated indoor conditions with suitable temperature and humidity. Mothers who are breastfeeding should maintain a light diet and avoid spicy and irritating foods. Wishing the baby a speedy recovery!
