Question
Our baby first had a fever, and after three days of intravenous drip treatment, they slightly improved. However, after stopping the treatment, they started vomiting milk after feeding. What’s going on?
Answer
Your baby may have contracted wind-cold influenza, which is usually caused by catching a cold and is more common in the autumn and winter seasons. Symptoms include body aches, nasal congestion with runny nose, and cough with phlegm. Treatment for wind-cold influenza can include Western or Chinese medicine, as well as dietary therapy. It is suggested to use ‘Jing Fang Bai Du San’ for treatment. Since the baby is affected by neonatal diseases, parents should immediately take their child to see a doctor and avoid self-medicating to relieve symptoms. Parents should closely monitor their baby’s condition changes and help them receive timely treatment.
