Question

Does pediatric roseola cause cough?

Answer

Common symptoms of pediatric roseola include fever and rash after fever subsides, and sometimes coughing as well. Coughing may be due to respiratory inflammation caused by pediatric roseola. When observing your child, pay attention to whether their body temperature rises, if they have sputum cough or asthma-like symptoms. It is recommended to consult a doctor for bronchial and lung auscultation to determine the severity of the cough. Mild cough can be initially treated with oral anti-inflammatory and cough suppressants, and it is important to provide plenty of fluids and frequently change positions to pat the back. Typically, medication treatment takes about 7 days. Wishing your baby a healthy growth!
