Question
My 27-month-old baby was fine before taking a nap. After crying a few times, there was a bit of phlegm, and upon waking up, the baby’s throat was hoarse and there was a cough with a wheezing sound. The baby has taken some throat-clearing medicine. What could this be, and how should I handle it?
Answer
Based on the description, the baby may have developed upper respiratory infection symptoms during sleep. It is recommended to give the baby more water, observe for any signs of fever, and take the baby to the hospital for examination and medication.
