Question
The weather has turned cold recently, and my baby has been constantly running a nose without coughing for almost a week now. All body temperature readings are normal. What should I do? Do I need to consult a doctor for my baby’s persistent runny nose?
Answer
Your baby might be suffering from a viral respiratory inflammation, with the common cold being one of the most frequent respiratory system diseases. It is important to take preventive measures. You can give your baby ceftriaxone granules, Qingkailing, and other symptomatic anti-inflammatory medications for treatment, and ensure your baby drinks plenty of warm water and gets adequate sleep. It is recommended to take your baby to the hospital for a detailed examination and to use medication under the guidance of a doctor. Wishing your baby a quick recovery.
