Question
The baby was hospitalized for seven days with pneumonia, and the doctor checked that there were no major issues with the lungs. However, there is still some phlegm, and the baby occasionally snores during naps after discharge. On the third day, due to catching a cold, there was a stuffy nose and snoring all night. The next day, symptoms of high fever appeared, with no runny nose or hiccups. After taking cold medicine and anti-inflammatory medication, the fever subsided, but the snoring persisted, affecting sleep quality. How should it be handled?
