Question
The baby was born a few days ago, and recently, for some unknown reason, the baby keeps scratching its ears. Can a baby with a runny nose and sneezing eat Aicang?
Answer
Considering it might be due to an external wind-cold, you can give the baby drugs like Huitong Granules, Children’s Cold Remedy, Qingkailing Granules, and Ceftriaxone Granules. It’s also recommended to have the baby drink more water, keep warm, and it should recover. It’s suggested to pay attention to giving the child plenty of water daily, eating fruits rich in vitamins, frequently gargle with saltwater, maintain fresh and humid indoor air, rest more, ensure adequate sleep, and if the throat feels uncomfortable, you can buy some throat-soothing candies for the child, such as Manyan Shu Shu Xianghao Candy. It comes in fruit flavors that kids will like too and is good for moistening the throat.
