Question

The baby was born one week ago and the room temperature was set to 23 degrees Celsius, but the baby wore fewer clothes and covered less. During sleep, there was a loud breathing sound, especially coming from the nose. After seeing a doctor and taking medication, there has been improvement. Now, at 46 days old, if the baby is held in a place without air conditioning at night, especially during the late hours, the loud snoring sound from the nose returns. What suggestions does the doctor have?

Answer

Hello, it seems that the baby has a cold caused by catching a cold. Pay attention to proper warmth measures and drink some plain water to alleviate the condition. In severe cases, consider using paracetamol for children’s symptomatic anti-inflammatory granules for treatment. There are many reasons that can cause respiratory problems in children. If the child is diagnosed with pediatric respiratory system issues, parents need to cooperate with the doctor for timely treatment, support gastrointestinal decompression, and develop good hygiene habits. Parents should also be cautious not to allow children to develop picky eating habits and should have a balanced diet.
