Question

My child is 50 days old and has a stinging sensation in the throat when drinking water and swallowing during breastfeeding. The pain has eased in the past few days, but after taking snake gall and fritillaria liquid and acetylsalicylic acid, the symptoms are more severe today. The stinging sensation when drinking water has intensified, and there is also a coughing symptom.

Answer

Based on the description, the child may be experiencing laryngitis during breastfeeding, and the symptoms seem to have worsened after taking medication. It is recommended to go to the hospital for a routine blood test as soon as possible and possibly require intravenous treatment. Daily precautions should include staying warm, avoiding catching a cold, and ensuring adequate deep sleep. If the inflammation and infection are severe, it may be necessary to temporarily stop breastfeeding and appropriately isolate the child to prevent cross-infection.
