Question

My baby is now 56 days old and has nasal congestion and a runny nose. Sometimes, she coughs while drinking milk. Is it a cold, and can air conditioning cause nasal congestion?

Answer

Hello: Your child’s condition still falls under the symptoms of a cold! As you mentioned, there is a direct relationship with the use of air conditioning, which is also directly related to the dry weather after using air conditioning! Pediatric otorhinolaryngological diseases have a significant impact on patients, and it is recommended that patients seek timely consultation with a specialist and receive treatment under the guidance of a doctor. In daily life, it is advisable to drink more water and pay more attention to their dietary issues. We hope the baby can recover quickly!
