Question

My baby has been constantly coughing for four months, and I don’t know what to do. Past treatment and effectiveness: none. Assistance sought: to inquire about how to treat a child’s cough.

Answer

A persistent cough in babies can lead to inflammation of the respiratory tract, which is detrimental to the baby’s health and can affect their rest. Since the baby is still quite young, it is not recommended to give them medication. You can adjust their lifestyle, ensure warmth, maintain a balanced diet, drink plenty of water, and frequently prepare Rock sugar pear water (honey pear water) for the baby to drink, which has a good therapeutic effect on coughs. If the situation does not improve, it is important to seek medical attention promptly.
