Question
A 3-month-old baby is experiencing cough and dry retching, and has had diarrhea in the past, which has already improved. The family is seeking advice on what medication to give the child and any precautions to take.
Answer
The child may have developed these symptoms due to a gastrointestinal cold, which is usually caused by a viral infection and can lead to symptoms such as nasal congestion, runny nose, cough, nausea, dry retching, and fever. It is recommended to keep the child well-hydrated and to take drugs such as Diphenhydramine for Children or Bifidobacterium Complex. If there is still diarrhea, Montmorillonite Powder can be used. The mother can also take the Four Nine Cold Relief Tea, which will help the child recover. Wishing the child good health and growth!
