Question
How should I treat my two-month-old baby who has a slight cough?
Answer
The most common cause of cough in infants is inflammation of the respiratory tract. It is suggested to use medications like Azithromycin and Qiangli Pipayu under a doctor’s guidance for treatment. If the condition does not show improvement, it is recommended to undergo a chest X-ray and blood test to rule out the possibility of pneumonia. For children diagnosed with respiratory system diseases, parents should immediately cooperate with the doctor for treatment and pay attention to daily hygiene habits. Children should maintain a reasonable diet and avoid consuming irritating and cold foods.
