Question
My newborn has a runny nose with a little blood, has red spots on their body, and is vomiting. What could be the cause of the runny nose with blood?
Answer
Based on the description, these symptoms are typically caused by a viral infection and it is not recommended to self-administer anti-inflammatory medication. It is suggested to give the baby more water, consume sufficient vegetable broth to replenish fluids and vitamins, which can aid in self-healing. Additionally, honey can be used for treatment. It’s important to stay hydrated and eat more vegetables and fruits regularly.
