Question
Lately, my baby has been crying constantly, accompanied by excessive phlegm. The hospital examination showed no abnormalities. How should I handle this situation?
Answer
The baby’s symptoms may be tonsillitis, which falls under upper respiratory infections. Treatment primarily involves antibiotics, and intravenous injection can be considered. Alternatively, using a golden lantern to make water for drinking is also effective. If the baby’s body temperature reaches 39 degrees, first administer a fever reducer like ibuprofen, and conduct a routine blood test to determine the extent and type of infection. If necessary, use antibiotics.
