Question

My baby is 10 months old and two weeks old. She started coughing two days ago, and she began to have a fever yesterday, accompanied by dry heaves. She still has a fever today, and she hasn’t had a bowel movement for two days. Her cough worsens when she lies down. What should we do for treatment?

Answer

Based on your description, your baby may be suffering from a cough and fever caused by a viral or bacterial infection. It is recommended to give your baby symptomatic anti-inflammatory medication while ensuring they drink plenty of water. You can administer azithromycin and Erythromycin oral liquid to your baby. I hope these suggestions will help you, and wish your baby a speedy recovery!
