Why Is My Baby Coughing So Badly at Night?

Question

A few days ago, my baby had a fever from a cold and has been taking anti-inflammatory medication, but the runny nose and cough have not improved. They cough more at night, and the medication is still being taken. After taking the anti-inflammatory medication, what is the matter, expert? Should I use medication or try traditional remedies like braised pear with Fritillaria thunbergii or cooked water with Houttuynia cordata?

Answer

You can try drinking a Fritillaria and pear soup; it has been effective. Additionally, be cautious about your child’s nighttime cough; could it be due to allergies? Does the child have a history of allergies or eczema? Do the parents have a history of allergies? If so, you can consider adding Montelukast anti-inflammatory treatment. If it’s effective, you can take it temporarily for a week. These are the suggestions for the question ‘Why Is My Baby Coughing So Badly at Night?’ I hope this helps you, and wish you health!
